Noy's Miniatures Helo Landing Area

This latest set is a Helipad (military helicopter tarmac), and is offered in 1/144, 1/72, 1/48 & 1/32 scale. Aimed at the military helicopter enthusiast, the new sheet is based on actual reference and will enhance any model of the AH-1, AH-64, Bell Huey family, UH-60 and many others. Note that as with other Noy's Miniatures sheets, everything is printed. However real and authentic looking, all effects are 2D. I leave it up to the modeler to add whatever 3D items he, or she, wishes. Noy sent the 1/72 and 1/48 sheets and they are superbly done as are their other bases.

First, the base unadorned:

Next, the 1/72 base. This is Length: 31.1 cm (12.2 inch); Width: 22 cm (8.7 inch) and is adorned with an Airfix Puma:

The other is 1/48 scale. Length: 39.6 cm (15.6 inch); Width: 28 cm (11 inch), and has a Hasegawa AH-64D on it.

Their other tarmac sections are very reasonably priced and this one should be no exception. They are shipped with great care to ensure that they arrive in pristine condition. Payment through paypal. You can contact them via e-mail at which time pricing and shipping information will be provided. Please contact Noy's Miniatures at noypines@netvision.net.il for more information and on ordering these superb airfield tarmac bases. These are also available at some stockists, so check your local shop to see if they carry them.
