Türkmodel Alai 1:35 kit

Static and RC model

The kit can be assembled as a static model, but experienced modelers can assemble it as a floating model, which the manual also includes. The floating model requires RC equipment such as a motor, controller, battery, receiver and transmitter, which are not included in the package.

Construction difficulty 3

Advanced ship model kits require previous experience in model building and mastery of the techniques of individual technological steps, such as gluing, bending, painting, sewing sails, etc. It is necessary to orient yourself in the drawing documentation, plan out the individual steps and the entire procedure. It is necessary to study any details and it is necessary to take into account that the construction requires a certain degree of creativity and independence, because the instructions do not necessarily deal with the production of every detail.

The models are extensive and detailed, taking a long time to complete and requiring a lot of finishing work on the parts.

Modeling tools and mat

To build ship models, you need the right tools. We recommend the excellent Modelcraft set of tools for ship modelers (set of 12) or the Modelcraft set of tools for modelers (set of 18). We also recommend purchasing nylon clamps and the indispensable model pins. We recommend a modeler's mat for trimming, precise cutting, gluing parts and also as a table protector.

Glue and paints

For gluing, we recommend universal dispersion glue and Robitronic instant glue medium 20ml. For painting, we recommend acrylic enamel paints. Apply paints with quality brushes (flat brushes for surfaces, round brushes for details).
