Here's a quick run through of how to put this model together. You will need:
- snips or side cutters
- acrylic paints
- gentle sandpaper (400 or 800 grit)
- superglue
- Use snips or side cutters to remove the long support piece before painting, here and here:
- Paint the pieces separately.
- Remove supports from each piece.
- Lightly sand underneath the main body part so it's nice and flat.
- Put a tiny bit of superglue on the sanded edge.
- Put it down onto the base part, adjust the fit if needed.
- The handle and brush fit loosely inside. Finished!
I hope this was helpful! If you'd like to buy this kit, or a finished and painted piece, they are available on my shop here. There's also a (non-opening) 1/48th scale version which you can see here.
