Red Fox Studio 1/35 WWII German Brick Base Type 4
The Red Fox Studio Type 4 Brick Base offers a prepared brick setting for 1/35 WWII German dioramas. Its 380 x 320mm surface features a colourful printed design with a three-dimensional effect, providing detailed groundwork for developing the rest of the scene.
Printed on 5mm thick extruded PVC, the base can be used as supplied or altered to suit the available display area. You can cut and scale the material, so you only need to incorporate the brick surface required for the planned composition.
Adapt the Base to Your Diorama
Rather than determining the size of the finished display, the Type 4 base can be shaped around it. The full 380 x 320mm area provides a substantial section of brickwork, while cutting the PVC lets you create smaller areas for more compact layouts or combine it with additional scenic groundwork.
The three-dimensional effect gives the printed design greater visual definition and establishes the brick surface before the main subject is positioned. Its 1/35 scale and WWII German theme make it suitable for creating a period setting while leaving scope to personalise the surrounding scenery.
Add Your Own Paint and Weathering
The surface is resistant to UV rays and to various paints and washes, allowing the supplied finish to be modified as part of the weathering process. You can apply washes and additional paint effects to introduce tonal changes and help blend the brickwork with other elements of the diorama.
A semi-gloss finish is present on the printed surface. Where a flatter appearance is preferred, applying a coat of matt varnish is recommended to reduce unwanted sheen while maintaining the detail and three-dimensional character of the design.
Part of the Red Fox Studio range, this Type 4 Brick Base combines a 380 x 320mm printed surface with adaptable 5mm extruded PVC construction. Use it complete or cut it to the required dimensions when creating the groundwork for a customised 1/35 WWII German diorama.
