A detail for naval dioramas

Wheel chocks are part of the ground support equipment used to immobilize a parked aircraft. At this scale, they help enhance a flight deck, naval base, or maintenance area scene, by adding a coherent element around the landing gear.

Assembly and finishing

Resin parts require appropriate preparation before assembly and painting. Careful cleaning, removing any mold seams, and using cyanoacrylate glue are generally recommended for resin accessories. A base coat followed by a light weathering can help integrate the chocks into a runway or ship deck setting.
