There is news regarding our beloved plastic modelling from the European Union. No, it is not to be banned, but adjustments are being demanded with regard to environmental friendliness. It is about the ratio of the often few parts (not a problem in itself) in relation to the gigantic amount of moulding sprues that end up in the waste! It is obvious that the new large 1:16 kits will be particularly affected.

Innovative manufacturers such as Eduard are already working on appropriate procedures. The process itself is not new, and there is already literature on the subject, e.g. here (Please see the description about the many advantages!)

The practical problems in our field are more likely to be how to label the parts and then reference them in the manuals. It will also be more difficult to check used kits for completeness if all the parts are tumbling around in the boxes without moulding sprues. Small parts in particular, such as those for 1:700 scale ships, will also be easier to lose.

В этом тексте я поделюсь своими мыслями и своим опытом про шпаклёвку. Надеюсь, будет интересно.
