1:35 Pizza box & K*.

Why small things decide

A scene is believed most by whoever finds in it the things nobody puts there on purpose. A pizza box set aside on a hood, on a crate or thrown down by a wall will do more for credibility than another vehicle. At the same time it places a scene unambiguously in the present, so it suits present-day equipment, figures in civilian clothes and scenes from city buildings alike.

What the set contains

According to the name it is a pizza box in 1:35 scale. The accessory is intended for free placement in a scene; it does not make up a model on its own.

• 1:35 scale
• A pizza box as a scene accessory
• Suitable for present-day scenes and figures in civilian clothes
• Usable as an object set aside and as small litter in a scene

Placement and painting tips

Place the box where someone would really have set it down: on a flat surface, on the edge of a crate, under a bench. Leave a thrown-down piece slightly tilted and turned, because nothing discarded lies parallel to the edge of a base. Cardboard has no sheen, so choose a matte paint and then dirty the surface lightly, so that the box does not look as if it had just been unwrapped. An open lid suggests that the box is empty, while a closed one looks like food just delivered. Carry out the preparation and gluing of the parts according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Who it is for

The accessory will be appreciated by builders of present-day dioramas and city scenes, where it is exactly such small things that give a scene life. Figures, a model, paints, glue and a diorama base are not in the package, unless stated otherwise.
