Set application
- Scale: 1/72
- Contents: 1 sand ballast crate
- Compatibility: the complete IBG Models Gotha Go 242/244 family
- Technology: 3D printing
Recommended procedure
- Remove supports gradually and clean only the attachment points to preserve the plank texture.
- Test-position the crate in the cargo compartment or planned diorama and check the available space.
- Apply a thin primer coat; a heavy layer would soften plank joints and fastening details.
- Build the wood finish with several thin tones and a light wash in the joints; paint metal fittings separately.
- Fix the part with a small amount of cyanoacrylate adhesive.
The plastic kit is not included.
Use model paints and primers and adhesives suitable for 3D-printed parts to complete the set.
