Make a HYPER-REALISTIC Airfield Diorama Display base in 1 Day

In this video, I'm going to show you how to make a airfield diorama base for your scale models. This is a great way to add realism to your models and make them look even more real!
This airfield diorama base is a simple project that you can easily complete in just a few hours. I'll teach you how to create a detailed concrete base, so you can put your aircraft models in the perfect setting! With this simple project, you'll have a realistic display base and the same techniques can be applied to bigger dioramas!
PS: I ended up not using the voice over record since it wasn't good as I wanted and my voice is still sore due to the flu. I hope you understand :)

I'm at the point I want some more realism when I display finished models both 1/72 & 1/48. In searching airstrips as a possibility I came across your video and said to myself this is what I'm looking for. Small footprint (as I don't really have the room I would like) and pretty straight forward construction other than not having all the materials but Christmas is just around the corner. As a newcomer I would find it most useful if you would include a list of materials used. Well time to go visit Mr. Google and see what I can find, fortunately the video itself shows quite a few of the products and I will watch it several more times before delving into the actual construction. Thanks for posting.

@@ModestModeler That wpuld be great...perhaps some non-concrete type airfields? Desert, winter eastern front, pacific , etc?

[@ModestModeler]

Of course!! A series dedicated to various types of airfields 😀 There's not many videos about that

[@DarksouIjah]

@@ModestModeler Exactly. That is why I enjoyed this one so much. Not too many step by step tutorials on dioramas.

[@ModestModeler]

Yeah, is something that I know for some time. Now I manage to have someone to help me editing so there will be more terrain tutorials for sure 😀

[@Henrywinswars]

[@HornetCinematics]

[@ModestModeler]

Thank you!!

[@fabiozampino3812]

Bellissimo tutorial e beatiful display,che materiale è la base foam?

[@ModestModeler]

Thanks! The base is blue insulation foam :)

[@marcdassonville7780]

I think your base is a little to small . Otherwise very nicely done.

Anyone have a source for 1:48 scale junk? Cigarette butts, beer cans, Soviet-era graffitti decals, biohazard signs with cyrillic characters and Chernobyl hazmat suits? (The bright white ones with yellow ties at the wrist, ankles and around the facemask). I already have some rusty corrugated metal, concertina wire crumbling concrete and a two-headed peasant/farmer woman. This is going to be the bitchin'-est "Abandoned MiG-17 in the Forest" diorama evAr...
