1:35 Plastic Trash Bin Set (2pcs)

Plastic wheeled trash cans, 2 pieces, 1:35 (Ginger Cat)

A set of two printed resin plastic wheeled trash cans in 1:35 scale from the Turkish brand Ginger Cat. The manufacturer designed them in house and makes them by high-resolution resin printing. The box gives the count of two pieces. These are accessories for a scene, not a kit; paints and glue are not included in the package.

What it is suited to

A wheeled trash can is a prop that places a scene in the present day at once. The manufacturer recommends it for city streets, residential districts, industrial areas and military bases alike, and with this set it highlights the rendering of the lid, the wheels and the body of the container. A trash can also works well as a masking element in a street scene, because a figure can be placed behind it or a transition between surfaces hidden by it.

Usage tips

First wash the printed resin parts in warm soapy water so that the print residue disappears from the surface and the paint will hold. Cut off the supports with a saw or a cutting disc, never with nippers, which will break the resin. The manufacturer recommends applying a base before painting. Glue the parts with cyanoacrylate glue or epoxy, as cement for plastic will not hold here. A dark wash into the recesses and a drybrush on the edges will draw out the detail. Wear a respirator while sanding.

Who the set is for

• builders of dioramas and vignettes in 1:35 scale
• modelers who build a civilian or urban setting around their equipment
• those interested in convincing details of everyday life in a scene
• anyone who wants to give a diorama an understandable story

This is an accessory to a model, not a kit. The base kit, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
