Twenty-five-odd kilos is also too heavy to consider mounting on a couple of aluminium brackets you found under the broken flymo in the shed.
If you elect to consider building a diorama of this kind - you're on your own. We'd love to see the result, but neither the author of this thread, nor the custodian of the website will be accepting responsibility for the fault if you inadvertently liberate into the wild a very large quantity of liquified soap, or on the Competition table where that model was surrounded by eighteen other prize-quality models. However, it will raise a laugh on 'Have I Got News For You' when somebody uploads to YouTube footage of how the competition hall looked after you decided to plonk your model on the table and the subsequent tidal wave of Radox overwhelms the WWI aircraft competition table adjaecent. The properties of the glass case will be out of your hands. You have the right to decide where this model goes in your own home. You should reasonably contact any competition authorities or club members before taking this model on a public expedition. It's a very interesting setting to look at, so not only does any table it will sit on publically need to be sufficiently substantial to take the weight, it also needs to be equal to the very large numbers of people who will crowd around it and who will inevitably lean on its surface in large numbers.
We also don't take responsibility if you've slyly simply cut'n'pasted the text here into a desktop file, deleted the warning and tried to convince the person who's about to use you as a cricket bat that the people on the Internet site said it would be ok.
Get it right, you've a fantastic model. Well done, have a biscuit.
Get it wrong, it's all your problem.
If in doubt, don't.
