About product

Display Block 4x4 cm

A low display block with a square footprint of 4 x 4 cm. Unlike shaped plinths it has neither profiled edges nor a tapered body. It is a clean geometric shape whose only job is to raise a model and bound it clearly.

When a simple shape is an advantage

A profiled plinth is a decoration in itself. With a model that carries a lot of detail, color transitions or pronounced weathering, however, the decoration beneath it clashes with what is above it. A smooth block switches that competition off and only the geometry remains: a horizontal line on which the model stands. This approach is often chosen with collector's figures and smaller busts, where all the attention is to be on the painting, and for presentations where a whole series is unified.

In a display case and in front of the lens

In a display case a block works differently from a tall plinth. It does not raise a model conspicuously, it only lifts it above the level of the shelf, so that a shadow arises between the model and the glass that separates the outline. When several blocks of the same size stand side by side, a rhythm arises and a collection looks ordered. In photography a simple shape is easy to take out of the composition: it is enough to let it merge with the lower part of the background and practically only the model is left in the shot.

Who the block is for

  • Modelers who want a neutral background with no decoration of its own
  • Collectors of figures and smaller busts with demanding painting
  • Those who arrange a regular row of identical plinths in a display case
  • Photographers of models looking for the cleanest possible lower edge of a shot

FAQ

It has neither profiled edges nor a tapered body. It is a simple geometric shape, so it does not act as a decoration in itself and leaves all the attention on the model.

Figures and smaller busts whose outline fits into the square with a free margin all the way around. Measure the footprint of the finished model including overhangs, not just its base.

Yes. It lifts a model above the surface, so a shadow arises beneath it that separates the outline, and a simple shape can be left to merge with the background in a shot.
