Red Fox Studio 1/72 UK Asphalt Diorama Base
Create a detailed setting for your next 1/72 scene with this UK asphalt diorama base from Red Fox Studio. Measuring 300 x 230mm, the base features a colourful printed surface with a three-dimensional effect, providing a practical foundation for presenting a model in a convincing asphalt environment.
The design is printed on 5mm thick extruded PVC, combining a defined scenic surface with a base that can be cut and scaled to the size required for your project. This makes it suitable for layouts where the full 300 x 230mm area is not needed, while also allowing the shape to be adjusted to suit the intended composition.
Adaptable for Your Diorama Layout
The easy-to-cut construction gives you useful control over the final presentation. The base can be trimmed to fit the available display area or incorporated into a larger diorama design. Its 1/72 scale makes it a focused scenic accessory for modellers creating a UK asphalt setting at this popular scale.
The printed 3D effect adds visual depth to the asphalt surface, helping the base contribute detail and character without requiring the entire ground area to be created from scratch. It provides a strong starting point for arranging a balanced scene and positioning the central model effectively.
Resistant Surface for Further Finishing
The surface is resistant to UV rays and to various paints and washes, supporting additional finishing work when you want to adapt its appearance. Paint effects and washes can be used to personalise the surface and help it complement the wider finish of the diorama.
The base has a semi-gloss surface. A coat of matt varnish is recommended for a more realistic appearance, particularly when aiming to reduce the sheen of the printed finish. This straightforward final treatment helps bring the asphalt effect together while retaining the detail of the underlying design.
Part of the Red Fox Studio range of modelling accessories, this UK asphalt base combines a detailed printed effect, durable PVC construction and adaptable sizing in one convenient scenic component. Its cuttable format and paint-resistant surface make it a versatile foundation for a carefully composed 1/72 diorama.
