1:24 ASPHALT ROAD RACE TRACK BASE - ACRYLIC 3 MM (180 X 357 MM)

A 1:24 display board with the motif of an asphalt race track from Kelik

This is a finished display board for a model, not a kit. According to the name it is an acrylic board 3 mm thick and 180 x 357 mm in size, carrying the motif of an asphalt race track. The model is simply stood on it: nothing is glued, sanded or painted.

What the display board changes

Even the most carefully built car looks unfinished in a display case until there is a surface under it of the kind it would really stand on. An asphalt surface gives the model the context of a racing circuit, unifies the background and draws attention away from the tabletop or the glass of a shelf. The elongated 180 x 357 mm format leaves free space around the car, so you can turn the model at an angle and work with perspective.

When you will use it

• permanent display of a finished model in a case or on a shelf
• photographing a model, where a credible surface is wanted under the car
• the basis of a simple scene that can be completed with a figure or pit equipment
• presenting a model at a competition, a meeting or a swap meet
• protecting the underside of a model while carrying it and rearranging a collection

Who it is for

It will be reached for chiefly by builders of car and racing models in 1:24 scale who want a finished setting without working with plaster, sand and pigments. Those who often rearrange their models and need a base that withstands repeated handling will appreciate it too. The board is ready to use the moment it is unpacked.
