Renard R.31 'Belgian Recconaissance Plane' (Resin Kit) 1/48

Product detailed description

Model kit of a Belgian observation high-wing aircraft, whose service was terminated by the Wehrmacht's attack on Belgium. This is the only type of aircraft of Belgian design that actively fought in World War II. Virtually all machines were destroyed in defensive battles.

Scale: 1/48

The main parts of the model are cast from resin and supplemented with 3D printed parts. The parts of the model are not glued with ordinary plastic glue, but with superglue or other suitable epoxy glue. The model is intended for advanced modelers only!

To assemble the model, you need to purchase: Superglue or epoxy glue, paints, brushes, modeling tools.

We recommend using a respirator or other respiratory protection when grinding. Dust generated by resin parts, 3D printed parts, or sealants can later cause health problems. We also recommend using eye protection. Small parts can fly off during work and endanger your eyesight. We recommend using protective gloves when working with paints and thinners. The workplace should be well ventilated.

Working with stickers
The kit usually includes decal stickers, which must be carefully cut out and soaked in warm water for 20-30 seconds before application. Then remove them from the water and place them on a smooth surface (such as a glass table) for a while. The sticker will first curl slightly and then straighten out under the influence of the water. After about a minute, try to very carefully move the sticker on the backing paper. If it moves freely, you can carefully transfer it to the desired location on the model. First, slightly moisten the area where you want to place the sticker with water, or use a drop of softener for stickers. Then place the sticker on the model and carefully remove excess water with a soft cloth or paper towel. Press the sticker to the surface for a moment with your finger and a dry soft cloth. Be careful, if you have used a softener, do not touch the surface of the sticker unnecessarily until it dries, as you can completely destroy it.

The kit contains unassembled and unpainted resin, 3D printed parts and decals. Keep out of reach of children under 3 years. Not suitable for children under 14 years.
