About product

An East German warning beacon in 1:35 scale

This is a miniature accessory that is fitted to the roof of a vehicle that has already been built. The subject is the rotating warning beacon designated 1975, made by the FER works in Ruhla in Thuringia, a traditional center of East German electrical engineering.

Where a beacon like this appeared

Rotating warning lights of this type were fitted in East Germany to the vehicles of police and fire services, to ambulances and breakdown trucks and to heavy hardware escorting oversized loads. A detail like this can turn an apparently ordinary model of a vehicle into a service machine with a clearly readable role, and without a single further change to the body.

How to work with the accessory

  • mark the place for fitting first and only then drill
  • line the body of the beacon up with the plane of the roof so that it does not sit crooked
  • for the impression of glass, lay a silver base under the colored coat
  • finish the cover with a gloss coat; a matte surface kills the light
  • fit the finished beacon right at the end so that you do not damage it

Who the accessory is for

It pays to plan the fitting of the beacon before you paint and weather the roof of the vehicle, because drilling into a finished surface later always damages something. It will be appreciated by builders of Eastern Bloc hardware, by builders of Cold War dioramas and by modelers who collect small things for finishing off completed vehicles. Given the size of the part it suits someone who already has a little practice at working with tweezers.

FAQ

Usually in the middle or at the edge of the cab roof, depending on how it sat on the real vehicle.

A silver base under the paint and a very glossy finish that reflects the surrounding light will help.

Working with such a small part calls for tweezers and a steady hand, so we recommend it rather to the more experienced.
