1:24 Range Rover Classic '92 3D-Printed & coloured Interior on decal paper (Aoshima)

Quinta Studio 1:24 Range Rover Classic '92, a 3D-printed colored interior on decal paper (for the Aoshima kit)

This set is not a car kit; it is a detail accessory intended for modelers who are building the Range Rover Classic '92 in 1:24 scale from the maker Aoshima. Quinta Studio prints the interior parts in color in 3D directly onto a decal backing: the dashboard, the door cards, the seats, the center panel and the instrument cluster all have real three-dimensional relief, with raised dial bezels, switches, grab handles and stitching. The parts are applied like an ordinary decal, but thanks to the depth and the finished colors they create a photorealistic interior with NO painting. The dials have a glossy surface, so behind the windows they look like glazed instruments.

The real subject

The Range Rover Classic is the iconic British luxury off-road car, the car that in 1970 founded a whole class of comfortable off-roaders and joined ability in rough terrain with the comfort of a limousine. The early 1990s execution represents the mature form of the first generation: wood and leatherette trim, an upright seating position and an unmistakable dashboard. It is precisely the roomy, well-glazed cabin that makes the interior of a Range Rover a rewarding place to invest detail in 1:24 scale.

Use

• The individual parts are cut out, dipped like a classic decal and settled onto the corresponding surfaces of the interior. A decal softener or a setting solution, however, is not added, as it would damage the printed resin.
• The base only needs to be unified with a dark paint; spraying the interior and photo-etched parts are not needed.
• The relief is shaped for the particular Aoshima kit, so it does not have to fit another kit.
• We recommend gluing before closing the body up, while every surface is still accessible.

Who the set is for

• For fans of off-road cars and lovers of British automotive classics.
• For collectors of car models who want a cabin straight out of a photograph without laborious painting.
• For anyone who avoids photo-etch: a 3D decal is quicker and more forgiving.

This is an accessory for a model, not the model itself. The base Aoshima kit has to be owned; paints and glue are not included in the package.
