1:35/Uniscale Picture Frames + German Panther Tanks black/white (5pcs)

Framed pictures, Panther tanks in black and white (5 pieces)

Five miniature wall pictures with black and white shots of German Panther tanks from the Second World War, complete with frames. The MAiM set is listed in a universal scale based on 1:35 and, since a picture on a wall has no fixed size, it will serve in interiors in 1:32 or 1:48 as well.

Use in a diorama

Documentary black and white motifs look their best in a setting that examines and commemorates history: in a researcher's study, a military history club, a museum corner or as the background to the collection case of a modeler of armored vehicles. The range also holds a sister set with shots of Tiger tanks, and together they create a continuous museum wall devoted to German armor, in front of which figures of visitors can hold a discussion.

Tips for working them

Matched dark frames and regular spacing suggest the character of an official display, and miniature captions or rope barriers suit it. In a private study, combine the pictures with a bookcase, a lamp and documents spread out instead. Coat the motifs with satin clear in place of glass, and a faint sepia tone from a very thin wash will give them the patina of old photographs.

Who the set is for

• builders of museum displays and researchers' studies
• modelers of armored vehicles looking for a display case background
• makers of military history club scenes
• collectors of interior props

The set is meant for fitting into the interior of a diorama; with the frames, count on cleaning up and painting if necessary. The manufacturer does not state the exact dimensions.
