Service steps for the MiG-21 in 1:32 scale are a 3D printed accessory from Temp Models. It is not a model of an aircraft but airfield equipment for boarding the cockpit.
Responsibility details are not available.
The set brings 3D printed service steps for the MiG-21 in 1:32 scale from Temp Models. The manufacturer describes them as equipment for work during the ground servicing of aircraft. It is not a model of an aircraft but a piece of airfield equipment that stands by the cockpit on the apron and without which neither the pilot nor a technician can get to the aircraft.
The MiG-21 has its cockpit fairly high above the ground and no built-in footholds, so boarding and routine maintenance are handled with steps wheeled up to it. In period photographs they stand by the aircraft practically all the time: the pilot climbs up them to get in, a technician works from them on the canopy and on the front of the fuselage. That is exactly why steps are one of the most rewarding accessories for a diorama with a MiG-21, even though they are unobtrusive in themselves.
The parts are printed from resin and are held only by thin supports. Cut them off with a sharp scalpel as close to the part as possible, sand the marks down with fine sandpaper and protect your airways while sanding. It is glued with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue). Paint holds longer on a smooth print if you lay a thin coat of primer under it. Ground equipment is brought to life by a dark wash run into the recesses and by drybrushing on the edges.
The set is an addition to building a model, not a model in its own right. It is supplied unassembled and unpainted, and glue, paints and the base kit are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
