A novelty in the Armahobby shop – plastic bases for aircraft models, allowing for easy creation of a simple but impressive diorama in 1/72 scale – are now available!

The first sets are already shipped to reviewers and those modellers who ordered them in the promotional pre-order, and let’s take a look inside the box!

PSP Airfield 1/72 – diorama base for your model

The cardboard box contains a single 152x152mm (6″x6″) square base with the surface imitating the Pierced Steel Planking (PSP) airfield panels, popularly known as Marston Mat. The base is made from the same grey plastic and with the same precision and accuracy to the original as other 1/72 Arma Hobby model kits.

Bonus: 3D files for self-printing

The kit includes a link to download free files for self-printing on a 3D printer with universal airfield equipment: fire extinguisher, toolboxes, fuel barrels, British ‘flimsy’ fuel cans, wheel chocks and wooden trestle.

The plastic base allows even the less experienced modeller to make an impressive diorama. The crisp surface texture facilitates the use of various modelling techniques.
