About product

Printed Display Base 1:144: an Eighth Air Force Airfield, England 1942 to 1945

A large-format printed sheet 225 x 225 mm showing the surface of an airfield used by the Eighth Air Force in England in the years 1942 to 1945. It serves as a base under models in 1:144 scale. It is neither a kit nor a decal.

The surface of a wartime airfield

The airfields of this force came into being in England at wartime speed and their paved areas matched that: they were laid quickly, from whatever material was at hand, and maintained only as far as was necessary. The result was paving with pronounced divisions, with repaired patches in uneven shades and with edges running straight into the grass. That is exactly what defines a period scene: not an evenly gray surface but a surface made up of strips and patches with differing degrees of wear.

How to use the base

The 1:144 scale is practical for this subject, because in it even a four-engine machine can be displayed sensibly. On an area 225 millimeters on a side, count on one piece with a large bomber and on two with a fighter. The scene gains in believability if you add ground vehicles and small accessories in the same scale and if you dirty the underside of the model lightly; mud and dust from the edges of the area belong to wartime airfields as much as the paving itself.

Who the base is for

  • Builders of Second World War machines in 1:144 scale
  • Collections focused on aviation over western Europe in the years 1942 to 1945
  • Wartime airfield scenes including ground vehicles
  • Modelers who want a base matching the period instead of a neutral surface

This is a printed base for a model. The model itself, glue and paints are not part of the delivery.

FAQ

With a large four-engine machine count on one piece in 1:144 scale, and with a fighter comfortably on two.

The name gives Eighth Air Force airfields in England in the years 1942 to 1945 in general, not one airfield by name. The motif is therefore usable for that whole setting.

Believability is helped by lightly dirtying the landing gear and the underside of the fuselage and by adding ground vehicles or accessories in 1:144 scale. None of that is part of the base.

No. It is a printed sheet on which you stand a finished model. Nothing is stuck to the model.
