Modern Container (6516 ITALERI), 1/35 - Hauler HLU35072

The Hauler HLU35072 set is a photo-etched detailing set at 1/35, designed to complement the model of the modern military container Italeri ref. 6516. It is aimed at modelers who want to enhance the reproduction of a 20-foot container used in a contemporary military environment.

Transport containers are important elements of modern logistics. In a 1/35 diorama, they naturally find their place in a storage area, alongside support vehicles, in a convoy, or at a military base. This accessory helps you work more finely on certain details of the compatible kit thanks to the metal photo-etched parts.

Assembly and finishing

Photo-etching requires careful preparation: the parts are separated from their fret using a fine blade or a suitable pair of tweezers, then bent precisely when their shape requires it. A photo-etch bending tool or a flat pliers makes it easier to form the most delicate elements.

Gluing the metal parts is generally done with a cyanoacrylate glue suitable for model making. Careful handling is recommended to preserve the sharpness of the details. After degreasing and applying the appropriate primer, the set can be painted to match the container’s finish and the chosen diorama setting.
