I used my old photo base for a 1/25 scale diorama so I needed a new one.
I took a three foot by four foot piece of CDX plywood and skimmed it with sheetrock mud.

After allowing it to dry I sanded it and painted it flat black.

Then I sprayed two cans of automotive trunk paint to give texture and color.

I then fogged Wal Mart flat black over the top to dull it some.

Heres the finished piece.

This is a 1/6 scale diecast for reference,

An easy, cheap afternoon build that will last for a long time and can be used for multiple scales.
