STOP! READ THIS FIRST!
1.
Test fit all parts and make sure you know how everything goes together before gluing. If you are contem-
plating cutting a part to make it fit, please re-examine your assembly plan
—you’ve probably misunder-
stood some aspect of the design. Parts have been tested, and should fit together in a fairly straightforward
manner without modification.
2.
Most roofs are made to be removed. A few buildings have no floor (assumed dirt floor), so if you have a
base to glue it to, go ahead and make the roof removable. If you want it to be free-standing and sturdy,
glue the roof truss to the middle of the top of the side
walls and at least glue at least one roof panel in place.
3.
Metal doors and windows are provided. They have inte-
rior woodwork; the interior and exterior pieces sand-
wich the wall between them. All metal parts require
priming to paint.
4.
Use white glue for most assembly; if you use superglue
or a similar adhesive, be very careful not to let sticky
fingers damage the model!
5.
Prime all parts with a good black hobby primer to pro-
tect the MDF and keep it from absorbing water-based
paints, which can cause swelling and warping of the
material.
6.
You may wish to paint parts individually before assem-
bly; this works well for small parts that are hard to
paint neatly when glued in place.
7.
To simulate weathered wood, dry brush layers over the
black primer. Start with medium brown, then a mus-
tard-brown, and a final dry-brushing of tan. For other
colors, the first coat over the black primer should be
one shade darker than the desired final color. Dry
brush a lighter shade in the middle of the area of color
to give it the look you see in the wargame magazines!
8.
Experiment with your own assembly methods. The
models are dead simple to figure out, but if you need
help, contact Knuckleduster through our website,

WARNING! CHOKING HAZARD.
