About product

The French roundel as a base for a 1:48 model

A board from the Kelik line of display bases carries the motif of the French aircraft roundel, that is concentric circles in blue, white and red. This insignia is among the very oldest national aircraft markings in the world: French machines have carried it since before the First World War and it appears in a practically unchanged form on present-day types as well. The dimensions 240 x 240 mm, the acrylic thickness of 3 mm and the weight of 190 g are given by the name of the item.

How the ground works with a model

A colored roundel under a machine works like the frame of a picture. It draws the eye to the center, where the model belongs, and leaves the edges at rest. It looks especially good under aircraft in gray or aluminum shades, which bring no color to a display case by themselves and merge into the background on a white board. Under dark camouflage, on the other hand, the motif recedes a little, which may also be the intention.

Recommendations for setting up a display scene

Place the model in the middle of the circle and leave a clear margin around it so that the whole insignia reads. Put a caption or a plate with the name of the machine off the board, as it would be distracting on this motif. If you want to add to the scene, a single figure by the wing will do; more accessories cover the graphics of the ground. Wipe the surface before photographing, as every speck shows on a smooth surface.

Who the base is for

  • Collectors of French aircraft types
  • Modelers who display machines in 1:48 scale
  • For photographing a model against a colored background
  • As a gift to go with a finished model of French make

FAQ

French aircraft types of every period. The roundel has essentially not changed since the beginnings of aviation, so it matches a veteran and a present-day machine alike.

It is not. Both insignia work with the same three colors, but the order of those colors differs, which is why they cannot be confused.

The 240 x 240 mm format according to the name matches one single-engine machine. For a twin-engine type the large 410 x 270 mm board is the better choice.
