About product

American tanker in winter equipment, the Ardennes No. 2 series, 1:35, PANZER ART

A resin figure in 1:35 from the figure line of the maker PANZER ART. The marking Ardennes is the name of the series and states the winter character of the equipment; the number 2 is the order of the figure within the series. The figure is meant for dioramas and vignettes or as an add-on to a vehicle kit.

Execution and material

Layered winter clothing is rewarding for a resin casting: the material holds the bulk of the jacket, the collar, the gloves and the small items of equipment, which would lose their sharpness in injection-molded plastic. The casting is supplied on casting blocks and with mold seam lines that are cleaned up before building.

Building and painting tips

Wash the castings in lukewarm water with dish soap first, so that the mold release agent disappears. Cut the casting blocks off with a fine saw, level the faces with a file and sand the resin wet with protection for your breathing. Glue with super glue (cyanoacrylate) and fill the seams with filler. After a thin primer, lay the base shades down. With a winter scene it pays to lighten and cool the colors slightly — warm shades look alien in a snowy composition. Deepen the folds with a brown-gray wash and bring the edges out with a dry brush. You can soil the lower edges of the trousers and the footwear with a pigment with a hint of gray, as though the figure had been moving through slushy ground. A matte clear coat at the end; leave the leather parts and the metal buckles slightly glossy.

Who the figure is for

  • Builders of winter dioramas in 1:35.
  • Modelers of American equipment looking for a crew for a vehicle.
  • Painters of figures who enjoy layered winter clothing.
  • More experienced modelers working with resin.

The figure is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

The order of the figure within the series. In the same series a multi-figure set is offered as well, so these are different items.

Yes, both the subject and the layered equipment match a winter scene. Snow, a base and the vehicle are not included in the package.

Lighten and cool the shades slightly and carry the shadows into gray rather than into a warm brown. Warm colors in snow look detached from their surroundings.

Yes, super glue based on cyanoacrylate. Cement for plastic will not join resin.
