1:35 Industrial windows No.2

RT-Diorama 1:35 Industrial windows No.2 - industrial windows

A diorama element in 1:35 scale from RT-Diorama. It is not a kit of a vehicle and not a finished building but a building accessory in its own right: industrial windows to be set into the wall of a factory hall, a workshop or a storage object. The number of pieces in the package is stated on the box of the set.

What the windows are for in a scene

Windows settle the character of a building sooner than the masonry does. Industrial glazing with a dense division of the panes is read by a viewer at once as a production hall, even if you build only the corner of the front out of the whole structure. An element of this type therefore pays off even in small compositions, where the structure serves only as a background for equipment and figures. The brand offers industrial windows in numbered versions and alongside them a separate range of arched industrial windows, so a front can be put together out of several types of opening in the same scale.

Tips for placing it in the scene

• Draw the opening in the wall out from the element, not the other way around - the seating will then fit with no joints.
• Seat the windows before you weather the front, so that the patina follows on from the surrounding masonry.
• Leave a dark area or a suggestion of an interior behind the opening; an empty opening gives a set piece away.
• A fine division of the panes stands out best in sharp side light - count on that when photographing the finished scene.

Who the set is for

• Builders of dioramas in 1:35 with factory buildings
• Modelers who put structures together out of individual elements
• Small compositions where a building makes up the background of a scene
