Responsibility details are not available.
A printed accessory for a model of the Swedish Saab 29 Tunnan fighter in 1:48 scale. It represents the ladder by which the pilot climbed into the cockpit. It is intended to liven up an airfield scene around a finished model. It suits especially well when you are building the machine with the canopy slid back.
A ladder placed against the machine shows at once that it has just landed or is getting ready to leave. On postwar Swedish fighters it belonged to the standard equipment of a parking spot and in period photographs you see it beside almost every parked aircraft. Without it a model on a base looks more like a museum exhibit than a machine in service. Equipment like this tends to be the first thing a visitor notices at a show, and thanks to it the scene gains scale.
Printed parts have a fine structure, so clean them with a soft brush and avoid rough sanding. The traces of the print layers disappear under a thin coat of primer applied with an airbrush. In color terms a matte shade of the structure looks good, with wear on the rungs and light soiling at the foot. Before you seat the part, think out the angle at which it leans against the fuselage so that it looks natural. A dry brush will draw the edges out and give the metal depth.
This is an accessory for a model, not the model itself.
