A sheet of fine paper 16 x 11 cm with American army combat ration cartons in 1:35 scale.
Responsibility details are not available.
Supply in the field did not end with crates of ammunition. A soldier had to be fed as well, so behind the front heaps of cardboard packages with rations piled up, to be handed out right in the position. This sheet carries their unfolded shells in 1:35 scale, printed on fine paper over an area of sixteen by eleven centimeters.
A cardboard package has two identifying marks on a model: a very thin edge and slightly bowed walls. A resin casting has a thick edge and perfectly straight walls, so even after careful painting it reads as a wooden crate. Cut paper manages both without effort, and on top of that it can be crumpled, torn and dented, which does not happen with a hard material.
First separate the individual shells with a rough cut, and only then trim them clean along the line. Score the folds, otherwise the paper will fray at the bend. Glue the flaps with PVA glue applied with a stick rather than from the tube. Filled cartons look better than empty ones; a piece of balsa inside is enough. Leave a few packages cut open and spilled, and a heap by a kitchen or a distribution point will then get some movement.
A cutting mat, a fresh blade, a rule and glue suitable for paper. The scene itself, figures and vehicles do not go with the sheet.
It looks most natural where nobody put it on purpose: under the table of a distribution point, behind the tire of a parked vehicle, thrown into a ditch by a road. A neat pyramid in the middle of an open area, by contrast, gives away that the packaging was treated as decoration.
