Modular Display, Engineered for Painted Miniatures
Give your miniatures a world of their own
A painted miniature deserves a backdrop as impressive as the model itself.
Transform an ordinary shelf into a scenic display with a WarSplay Acrylic Backdrop. Featuring original artwork UV-printed directly onto premium 3mm acrylic, it's a simple way to bring atmosphere, colour and depth to your collection.
Choose from our available scenery themes, including Magma Rift, with more environments coming soon.
Original artwork. Made in the UK.
Every backdrop features original artwork created digitally by our experienced in-house artist, Jen.
No AI-generated imagery. No stock artwork. Just original scenery designed to complement your painted miniatures.
We UV-print each design directly onto rigid 3mm acrylic with polished edges in our UK workshop, producing a striking scenic background for your display.
Two heights. One backdrop.
The included holder rail offers two fixed height positions, 20mm apart, allowing you to position your scenery to suit your collection.
-
Lower position: Ideal for miniatures displayed directly on a shelf or cabinet surface.
-
Raised position: Lifts the artwork higher behind models displayed on elevated stands, including WarSplay Pro.
Switch between the two positions to find the best backdrop height for your display.
Works on its own or with WarSplay
Use the backdrop as a standalone scenic background for miniatures on a shelf, or position it behind your WarSplay display stand to create a more immersive scene.
The simple holder rail keeps the artwork upright without needing a full display enclosure.

Game Compatibility
Every WarSplay® stand is engineered around standard tabletop base sizes — see the base-size range listed in this product's description — so it fits the vast majority of miniatures mounted on standard round and oval bases.
Will it hold my Warhammer 40,000® miniatures? Yes, where those miniatures are mounted on bases within the range stated for this product. Models are sold on several different base sizes, so check the base diameter of your particular miniatures before ordering.

Will it fit in my IKEA Kallax, Detolf or Billy?
Yes. Every WarSplay® stand has a compact footprint that maximises space inside popular IKEA units — the Kallax cube, Detolf cabinet and Billy bookcase — as well as standard glass display cabinets. Fit several side-by-side on a single shelf, or stack the modular system to fill an entire cabinet. Internal shelf dimensions vary between models and revisions, so measure your shelf before ordering.

How do the modules connect?
Every WarSplay® unit uses a hexagonal flat-edge interlocking design. Modules slot together gap-free in any direction, letting you build wider squad displays, deeper army formations, or stack vertically. Mix and match Classic, Hero, Classic Mini and Hero Mini units to create custom layouts that fit your shelf, desk or cabinet.
What about larger bases — vehicles, monsters, characters?
WarSplay® has a stand for every base size. The Classic and Classic Mini handle standard infantry up to 32mm; the Hero Mini adds 40–50mm character slots; and the Hero takes large 80mm monsters, vehicles and cavalry. Every unit connects seamlessly into one modular system.
What is it made from?
WarSplay® stands are precision-crafted in our UK workshop from a high-density matte composite engineered to absorb cabinet lighting rather than reflect it. The result is zero glare hotspots and a clean, smudge-resistant finish that keeps the focus on your paintwork — not on the stand itself.
