About product

The Wright-Patterson taxiway in 1:72 scale

The artwork captures the taxiway of the Wright-Patterson US Air Force base in Ohio. It is not a kit or an accessory for a model but a base on which a finished machine stands. The model thereby stops hanging in a void and starts to read like a photograph from service.

The base where aviation began

Wright-Patterson came about after the Second World War through the merger of two older airfields, Wright Field and Patterson Field, and it takes its name from the Wright brothers and from a local test pilot. On the grounds of the base itself lies the meadow where the Wright brothers tested their first controllable machines. Today it is one of the most important places in the US Air Force altogether: the materiel command, research laboratories and also a vast museum that is among the largest aviation collections in the world are based here. The taxiways of such a base have characteristically divided concrete with expansion joints and a distinct yellow centerline.

Tips for photographing models

On a long concrete area the rule of thirds works: a model placed off center looks more natural in a shot than one in the middle. Leave a piece of open area behind the machine in the direction of travel; the eye will fill the takeoff run in. And if you shoot with a flash, angle it away from the surface, because a smooth area readily returns a harsh highlight.

Who it will serve

  • builders of American aircraft
  • those who present models at shows
  • modelers who enjoy photographing their own work
  • collectors who want to unify the look of a cabinet

FAQ

The base itself with the artwork of an airfield area. The model, the figures and the equipment are not included.

The subject is American, but a concrete taxiway looks similar all over the world, so the use is wider.

They are not stated here. The numerical data in the name need not match the goods delivered in this line; what decides is the manufacturer's instructions.
