Responsibility details are not available.
A kit of the historic car Russo-Balt type C in 1:72 scale. It comes from the manufacturer's limited-run range, which works with cast parts, and in its demands and the way it is built it therefore differs from an ordinary injection-molded kit. Check the exact composition of the package with the manufacturer; it cannot be deduced from the name.
Russo-Balt was the car marque of the Russo-Baltic wagon works in Riga, one of the first enterprises in tsarist Russia to build cars in series rather than individually. The type C was among its most widespread passenger cars from the years before the First World War, and its chassis also served for a range of utility and service bodies. In design it is a car typical of its time: a high chassis, large spoked wheels, an open body and simple cowling over the radiator. It is precisely that silhouette that makes the model a rewarding addition to dioramas from the period around the First World War.
Wash the parts in lukewarm soapy water, cut the casting blocks off with a fine saw and level the surfaces by wet sanding with respiratory protection. Glue with cyanoacrylate, because cement for polystyrene does not hold on cast parts. On cars of this era the result is decided by the contrast of the glossy painted body against the matte tires and the dusty chassis: spray the body thinly and polish it with varnish, while leaving the wheels and the underside matte and dusting them lightly with pigment. Small additions such as the lamps and the handles deserve to be painted separately off the model.
The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
