Product Description
This is a 19th century merchant seaman. This seaman is making a barrel. Use him with other seamen to enhance your model or diorama.
The barrel is not included.
Each item is printed at scale. The scale is 1/32. Please check the dimensions to ensure it fits properly to your model or display. You can request custom scales greater than 1/48 by contacting me.
The manufacturing process is capable of extremely high detail with a smooth surface.
The surfaces of all 3D printed products are porous due to the drop by drop nature of depositing material. These products are not food safe because they are porous. Do not place in your mouth. They are not FDA approved. They are not safe to be used as toys for children. They could be a choking hazard.
The item is unpainted. Prior to painting, it is suggested to clean and prime the surface. To clean, dip in acetone to remove dust and oils. Then, apply a 3D primer such as Badger 3D prime or 3D Prime to seal the striations and porosity associated with the printing process. 1 to 3 coats should do the job. The primer can be applied with a spray gun or with a brush to provide a nice smooth surface for painting. Paints come in numerous colors including many flesh tones and others common to the navies of these times. Choose a paint that is compatible with acrylic plastic material. You may protect the paint with a coat of varnish or lacquer. A nice quality model paint. like Viello, can be sprayed on brushed on the surface. The primer can be obtained from USA AIRBRUSH SUPPLY | IL 60191
