Easy To Make Bases.

[MesozoicJohn]

I have had some very nice comments about the bases I have made for my model Dinosaurs.

I would like to show you some much simpler one's I made for my 1/35th model AFV's, bases that could just as easily be made to display dinosaurs on.

They are made from a piece of 6mm mdf with a hardboard back piece. The mdf is covered with Javis  mat plus a few added stick on bushes. The back board is first covered with a piece of self adhesive scenic back ground then is screwed into position. Really easy and quick to make.
The tank in the first photo has been temporaily removed so the two Dinosaurs could pose for a photo

Thoose look great! I belive that a proper setting and background compliments great models even further. I have something similar in mind for my shelve this year once I have settled with a core cast of models. Still need to up my handiwork skills though

Thank you very for sharing, quite inspiring!

I absolutely love these! I think might have to try this out.

Also did you make and paint those military models? If so, that's really good.

I see that you are a multi-collector, that is, you not only collect dinosaurs but other things like tanks. Do you own more collections?

It is great to collect toy and resin dinosaurs but it is more exciting to be a collector of other things, having several hobbies at the same time is more enriching.

That is spectacular! You have several collections! That greatly enriches the person. Honestly, it is better to make several collections at the same time. I also have a collection of stamps from dinosaurs and the prehistoric world.
