How to use

Remove parts carefully from the sprues with a model cutter or hobby knife, clean moulding gates and test-fit components before gluing. Use plastic model cement for permanent joins and allow adequate drying time between assembly steps. Paint the assembled model with appropriate model paints, applying primer first for better adhesion and colour fidelity. Apply decals following the paint and clear-coat layers, then finish with matt or satin varnish and optional weathering to enhance realism.

Usage recommendations

Work in a well-ventilated area and use hobby tools and adhesives according to manufacturer instructions. Suitable for model builders aged above the recommended age on the packaging; small parts may present a choking hazard for young children. For best visual results, use fine brushes or an airbrush for painting and consider reference photos for authentic colour schemes and weathering techniques.
