Sunix Hobbies from Australia produces an interesting array
of diorama and vignette display bases. Unlike bases from other
manufacturers though, these come pre-painted, pre-weathered,
and ready to work.
This display base for example, consists of a 12cm x 12cm (4.7"
x 4.7") base, stretch of dirt road that had a picket fence
and the corner of a ruined hut on one side. Like the other
display bases in this series, the base is pre-finished in four
color schemes:
- Autumn Version (this one)
- Desert Version
- Summer Version
- Winter Version
You can visit their website to see the variations in color
and weathering to match those themes.
Check out the detail and finish of this simple display base
and imagine it as the backdrop for your Zundapp, Kubelwagen,
an infantry team taking a rest, or other vignette that
would come to life on this display base. There is even enough
space on the other side of the fence for another figure to
enhance the visual story.
Actually, this display base comes with your choice of two
fence styles, the picket fence above, or the rail fence shown
below. One provides cover for an enemy figure in hiding whle
the other provides a good all-round view of your story.
You can purchase this display base directly from Sunix
Hobbies and check out their other interesting display bases and figures.
Definitely recommended!
My sincere thanks to Sunix Hobbies for
this review sample!
