A photo-etched tree grate, type A, in 1:35 from the manufacturer Aber. A diorama accessory: a cast-iron grate around the foot of a tree in a sidewalk.
Responsibility details are not available.
This is a photo-etched metal diorama accessory in 1:35 scale from the Polish manufacturer Aber. The set represents the grate that covers the foot of a tree trunk in a paved sidewalk in a built-up area, in the type A variant. It is equipment for a scene, not a model kit.
This detail decides whether a street in a diorama reads as a real city. A grate around a tree is one of those features that are very hard to make by hand: it calls for a regular grid in thin material, which is exactly what photo-etching does best. In a diorama the grate is set around a trunk that you add yourself.
Separate the parts with a sharp scalpel on a hard surface, and never break them out by twisting. A photo-etch bending tool or two steel rulers will serve for the bends. Glue with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue); a two-part epoxy holds better on larger joints. Degrease the metal before painting and lay down a base coat meant for metals, and only then acrylics or enamels. You create weathering with a wash in the joints, a drybrush and pigments.
This is a diorama accessory, not a complete model. Glue, paints and a base board are not included in the package.
