About product

Butterfly Wing Nut 2.0 mm - GAS HANS wing nuts

A wing nut of a size of 2.0 mm from the GAS HANS brand is a detail accessory for the building of models. It takes the place of simplified cast shapes in the places where a hand-tightened joint is to be apparent - on covers, clamps and brackets.

Painting so that the shape does not disappear

The most frequent mistake with small details is drowning the shape in paint. Make the application thin and preferably repeated: a thick coat rounds the edges of the wings off and turns a sharp part into a droplet. Apply the base by spraying in a thin mist, not with a brush, because a brush gathers the paint into a ring around the part. When you cannot spray, thin the paint more than usual and draw the brush away from the part, not across it.

How to bring the detail out

The shape only comes through after it has been emphasized. Let a darkened wash run under the wings and into the seam around the nut - the shadow will show that the part really does stand out above the surface. The tops of the wings, on the contrary, should be gone over lightly with a dry brush in a shade one tone lighter. If you are setting the part in place only after the model has been painted, sand the paint off the contact surface, so that the glue holds on the material and not on the finish.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers who paint with an airbrush and want to keep the detail sharp
  • Builders of military equipment who work with a wash and a dry brush
  • Dioramas where the model goes through thorough weathering
  • Detail workers adding fastening elements beyond the kit

FAQ

In thin coats and preferably by spraying. A thick application with a brush rounds the edges of the wings off and turns a sharp shape into a droplet.

Both work. After the model has been painted, however, sand the paint off the contact surface, so that the glue holds on the material and not on the finish.

With a darkened wash that runs under the wings and into the seam around the nut, and with a light dry brush on the tops.
