You will need sprue cutters, plastic model cement, paint, paint brushes, and possibly a hobby knife.
The model is 1/48 scale.
No, the kit does not include paint. You will need to purchase paints separately.
While the kit is detailed, the ergonomic design simplifies assembly. Beginners may find it challenging, and it's recommended for those with some prior modeling experience.
This model is generally recommended for ages 14 and up due to the small parts and assembly requirements.
You can find reference photos and details of the real Challenger 2 tank online or in specialized publications.
Ensure all sprue attachments are cleanly removed. Check for any flash or imperfections and trim them with a hobby knife. Double-check the instructions to ensure the correct parts are being used.
Make sure you are using plastic model cement, not super glue or other adhesives. Apply a small amount of cement to both surfaces and hold the parts together firmly for the recommended time.
Clean the model with a mild detergent before painting. Use a primer designed for plastic models. Apply thin coats of paint, allowing each coat to dry completely before applying the next.
