BLOTZ B20-RU-008, B20_RU_008 Assembly Instructions

  • Hello! I've reviewed the user manual for the 20mm Ruins Ruined Archway #1. This document details the construction process using glue and a modelling knife. It also outlines a paint technique using drybrushing to achieve the desired weathered look. I'm ready to answer your questions about the model construction.
  • What kind of glue is required?
    What is needed to remove sections from the sprue?
    What is the first step in assembly?
    What kind of paint was used?
20mm Ruins #8 – Ruined Archway #1
B20-RU-008
Please read these instructions fully before starting construction.
PVA or equivalent glue will be required to stick sections together.
Sand paper can be used to gently clean any joints.
A sharp modelling knife will be required to remove sections from the sprue. Please use knives with due care and remember
to cut away from yourself at all times.
During the construction of this model, you may find it convenient to use pegs / elastic bands to hold pieces in place while
you allow glue to dry.
Remove the two arch sections and the long base from
the sprue.
Glue the arch sections back to back and then attach
them to the base.
Now remove the two short sections and their base
from the sprue.
Glue these together and attach them to the base.
The finished item.
Once constructed, we sprayed our model with a matt black car undercoat aerosol, then applied a heavy
drybrush of a dark blue/grey colour emulsion.
After that had dried we applied a lighter drybrush of a pale grey colour, then followed this by a very light dry-
brush of an almost white emulsion.
All our emulsion paints are DIY store colour-test pots.
