About product

Aber embossing plate 140 x 77 mm - German type, Second World War

A brass die measuring 140 x 77 mm, that is roughly twice the area of the smaller plates of the same range. The surface carries a precisely etched repeating relief, which the maker describes as a German type from the period of the Second World War. The plate is not a part of a model - it is a tool with which the modeler creates a textured sheet from thin foil himself. For this plate the maker, the Polish firm Aber, recommends the large scales 1:24 and 1:25, because the size of the relief is matched to that range.

Use

  • Lay polystyrene sheet or thin soft sheet metal on the plate.
  • Press the material evenly into the relief with a rounded tool, ideally in several lighter passes.
  • Trim the finished sheet and glue it to the model as a sheet metal cover, a floor or a panel.
  • The large area of the plate lets you make sizeable parts in one impression, with no visible matching up.

Where it is useful

Above all on large models of German military vehicles from the period of the Second World War, where the surface texture is clearly visible on account of the scale and smooth plastic looks unsatisfactory. It will also come into its own in dioramas and in building your own parts, whenever you need a coarser, distinct texture. This is period equipment, which modelers build for historical and collecting reasons.

Who it is for

For builders of large scales and for modelers working by the scratchbuilding method. The plate is durable and usable over and over.

The etched edges of the brass can be sharp - handle with care and keep out of the reach of small children. Foil, glue and paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

The plate is not in a scale at all - it is a tool. The figure 1:24 and 1:25 is the maker's recommendation of how large a model the size of the relief suits.

Physically yes, but the texture will look coarse on a smaller model. For 1:35 and smaller, plates with a finer pattern are usually chosen.

Most often thin polystyrene sheet, or else soft brass or aluminum foil. The material has to be capable of being pressed through by hand.

Yes, a brass die is practically not worn down by ordinary use. It is enough to protect it from being bent and to clean it after the work.
