Responsibility details are not available.
Injection-molded plastic kit of a civilian car in 1:35 scale, that is in the same scale in which military vehicles and most figures are built. The package represents the London form of the Type AG of 1910. The maker is the Ukrainian firm ICM, which has long focused on small historic vehicles and on figures. The model shows to advantage in a display case as a piece on its own and as the centerpiece of a street scene alike.
The Type AG is a light car from the French brand Renault of the early 20th century. The car became famous as a city taxi: it has a tall wheel track, wire wheels, an open driver's position and an enclosed cabin for the passengers, an arrangement typical of the taxi trade of the day. Cars of this type ran in large numbers before the First World War not only in France but also in London, where they became part of the image of the city. A characteristic feature is the sloping hood with the radiator placed behind the engine.
Build the chassis first and let it set perfectly level on a flat board, so that the model stands on all its wheels. Separate thin parts such as the fenders, the running boards and the window frames with a saw rather than with nippers. It pays to spray the body with an airbrush: glossy period finishes call for a smooth surface, so sand the areas with fine abrasive paper before painting and lay down a primer. Go over the area with a gloss clear coat before the decals and knock it back once dry. Finish the interior and the seats before you close the cabin, because you can no longer reach them through the glazing.
The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
