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 and a corner of what was a building. Like
the other display bases in this series, the base is pre-finished
in two color schemes:
- Summer Version (this one)
- Winter Version
You can visit their website to see the variations in color
and weathering to match those themes.
I've really been impressed with the quality of the prefinished
based from Sunix Models, but this one is a completely different
story. I wound up staring at this one for quite a while. Look
at what is left of those wood floors. Look at that brick detail
inside of the walls. That is some incredible detail, but look
at that rubble pile in the corner. In addition to piles of
brick and cement, there is a two-drawer end-table that has
been knocked over with one drawer open and its contents spilled
out. Look again at that detail! It would almost be a shame
to put any figures into that scene! Nevertheless, a couple
of well-selected figures in that scene would tell quite a story
without much effort.
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!
