A photo-etched fret of equipment accessories for American infantry in the Second World War, 1:35 scale.
Responsibility details are not available.
A photo-etched fret of parts with which figures of American infantrymen of the Second World War period can be brought to life. Thin metal manages a thickness that a cast part will never come close to, and it is exactly on the webbing, the buckles and the small ironwork that the difference is visible on a finished figure at first glance.
The American infantryman of the 1940s gave the impression of carrying a whole household on himself: the M1 helmet with its cover, a belt with ammunition pouches, a haversack, a canteen, an entrenching tool and a raincoat. It is that very tangle of straps that makes Allied figures a demanding subject. The more straps you manage to thin down, the more the figure gains and the less it looks like something taken out of a mold.
Nip the parts out of the fret with a sharp scalpel on a hard surface, level the burrs with a file and degrease the surface with alcohol before joining. Make the bends over a metal ruler or in a bending tool, though straps are often better shaped around a rod so that they hold a natural curve. You join metal with cyanoacrylate. Before the paint goes on, photo-etch needs a primer, otherwise it will not hold on the smooth surface. Keep the remains of the fret, as they will serve later as material for small repairs.
The figures themselves are obtained separately, and the fret only complements them.
