1:72 M150 TRACKWAY RAPID REPAIR BASE - ACRYLIC 3 MM (280 X 180 MM) (170 G)

1:72 base for a model, M150 Trackway, rapid repair of a surface

A printed acrylic plate 3 mm thick and 280 x 180 mm in size; the pattern is drawn for 1:72 scale. The motif comes from unrolled trackway matting of the kind used for the rapid repair and strengthening of an operating surface. The weight is 170 g and the designation is M150.

Rapid repair of a surface

Unrolled metal matting is laid on a damaged or soft surface so that vehicles can drive over it or a helicopter can land on it. The pattern of such a surface is therefore always a little less regular than concrete, and it gives a model the context of a contemporary expeditionary or reserve base. The manufacturer also makes further bases with a matting pattern, so a scene can be extended step by step.

How the base is used

• The plate works as a landing or parking area under one model in 1:72.
• The pattern suits contemporary vehicles and helicopters above all.
• Combined with a base with a concrete surface it creates a transition between two types of surface.
• The flat acrylic setting holds a model steady even on a show table.
• The matting pattern also suits a diorama scene with the vehicles that keep an airfield running.

Who it is for

For modelers of contemporary helicopters and aircraft in 1:72 scale and for those who want to liven a display case up with a less usual surface than a classic concrete runway. It also serves as a setting for photography, where the structure of the matting creates an interesting texture.

The model, the paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
