A sheet of modeling decals in 1:35 scale: Tiger I, the markings 205, Normandy, June 1944. A standalone accessory for a model you build and paint separately.
Responsibility details are not available.
The set brings the markings of the Tiger I heavy tank with the tactical number 205 from Normandy in June 1944, as given in the name of the item. It is not a kit or a finished model but a sheet of decals in 1:35 scale with which you finish an already built and painted kit.
The most common mistake is laying them on matte paint. A matte coat has a microscopically broken surface, air stays in it under the carrier film and a silvery rim appears around the markings. So spray the whole area, or at least the places under the decals, with clear gloss varnish and let it cure overnight. Only then is the base ready.
Both the side of the Tiger's turret and its hull are full of projections, and it is exactly there that the quality of the work shows. Trim the decal close to the printing, leave it in lukewarm water for a few seconds and, before you slide it off, wait until it moves freely on the backing paper by itself. Adjust the position with a soft brush and blot the excess water with a tissue. Then come the softeners: the first solution belongs on the base before laying, the second on the laid decal. When the markings lie over a sharp projection, prick the bubble with the tip of a scalpel or a needle and repeat the drop of softener; the film will draw into the shape and look sprayed on.
Go over the dry decal with gloss varnish to protect it, and then unify the surface with a matte or semi-matte varnish. Only after that do washes and dust come into play. Worn markings are made with fine abrasive paper and water or by scraping spots away with the tip of a toothpick, but always only after sealing.
The package contains decals. The kit, paints, varnishes and softeners are not part of it, unless stated otherwise.
