Description of item
Unpainted grey resin model (you will not receive a painted model)
 
12th Scale Miniature – French 19th Century Wheelbarrow
 
Dimensions 13cm long x 4cm high x 4cm deep
 
Made from 3D printed resin. 
This is a complete kit so no assembly is required....just clean the little nodules that come from the 3d printing and paint.  
 
It could be placed both inside and outside the house and filled with anything from fruit, veg, flowers and hay to toys, blankets. Maybe even hung on the wall of a rustic kitchen? 
 
Painting tips
For a smooth finish, begin with a suitable primer before applying paint. Alcohol-based paints can create a lovely, fluid finish, while acrylics offer good coverage and a wide choice of colours. 
 
This unpainted French 19th Century Wheelbarrow in 12th scale  offers a perfect canvas  to craft a truly authentic, aged look. To achieve an old worn paint effect, you can apply several paint colours and then carefully sand the top layer to reveal the layers beneath. For aging the top coat, use a brown paint such as raw umber mixed with water or a scumble glaze, applying it and wiping it off to add depth and character. Alternatively, finishing touches with brown wax or liming wax provide a soft, vintage appearance. 
 
Materials and durability
3D printed in high-grade resin, carefully selected for its long-lasting durability. While some 3D printing resins may deteriorate over time, I use premium-quality resin chosen for its longevity, so you can enjoy your miniature for years to come.
