Coastal Kits
You may have seen that in here Now under Noy’s Miniatures I have reviewed a number of printed card bases that you can use to display your aircraft models. What we have here is quite different and in my opinion a step up in terms of hitting the mark for what we are looking for.
What you get from Coastal Kits is a durable base that will take plenty of handling, has a realistic printed surface depicting the subject location like: hard standing; Soviet Airfield and so on.
The quality of the products is excellent and what I particularly like is that they can be used as is or, you can stick them or inset them onto or into another base board as you like – plenty of options here.
Here’s a note from Coastal Kits about their plans…
“We will continue to develop our core range of display bases, which now number in excess of 250, to continue to provide a wide a choice as possible to our customers. We value customer input enormously and indeed, this has helped produce many popular lines in our range.
We hope to introduce and develop the display base range for larger scale models and have already made a start with the recent releases of 1:32 scale Grass display base and 1:32 scale German Frigate Helipad.
Also planned are a selection of display bases for Civil Airliner models in various scales.
Our custom display base service continues to provide bespoke designs to customers and model clubs.
As always, please feel free to post up any feedback or design ideas that you would like to see or indeed drop us a line.”
Here are a few more of the bases on offer and there are many, many more to choose from.
Highly recommended
