Castle ruin Trosky Czech - 1:300 - Z-art

[Styrian Spitfire]

Hello ,

Yes, the Kurt does not make the tinkering

For the first time I will cut a sheet of the Czech publisher Z-art.
The graphics look beautiful, so I dare try here.

In this arch are two models to be found, first the ruin and secondly also a reconstruction as the castle was still in operation.

For the ruins, 70 parts are planned, building sketches are on five sides and the description is in Czech as well as in English.

It begins with part 1, the rock structure, whereby the tabs seem a bit too narrow. These are therefore broadened.
In part 2 a retaining wall is installed which I reinforce with 1 mm cardboard.

Now insert part 1, so the first rock, the cardboard goes very well to the work.

Kind regards Kurt

Looks good. Those mountain castles from eastern Europe always seem to have an interesting shape.

I would like to find a paper model of Poenari Castle.
Vlad Dracula.

Hello ,

I also looking for the Dacula Castle

Part 4 proves to be extremely complex, here you should pay careful attention to the bending directions.
Parts 3 + 5 must be inserted into the gap of the rock 4.
This is the first fragment of the wall.
Now join the two rock parts together.
Despite the complexity of the rock parts, the accuracy of the pass is excellent, it is fun!
Sections 6 + 7 and anchor to the rock.

Kind regards
Kurt

Nice start. Would you have to buy two kits if you wanted to make both versions?

OK, it's not Poenari Castle, it's the other one ... Bran Castle.

Hi MRCronk ,

you only must buy one kit , because there are two complete Models inside !

Hello !
*
The parts for the tower on the first rock. As soon as I build a castle, Princess Kunigunde is back again.
First close the interior wall, then install the passage and start with the battlements.
I have glued the lamellae for lugs and clad with the exterior wall.
A filigree minimalist - splendid !!
The first construction phase has been completed with the addition of the walls on the tuff rock.

Kind regards
Kurt

Hello everybody,

The part salad for the second turns out to be a tricky puzzle.
The top of the rock is first fixed to a flap and then simply folded up.
The parts 26 to 28 - the wall parts for the rock II.
First glue the upper floor 27, close all around and glue the wall strip 26 on it. Now stick the whole to the rock II.

Kind regards Kurt

Hello everybody ,

The parts for the next assembly, which are of course reinforced again.
The two segments are combined with part 31.
Part 34 with pasted template for reinforcement.
When gluing the reinforcements, make sure that the space for the glove pockets is left free.
First glue on part 31, allow to dry well, then fold up and close the part. Strips 33 + 35 are used to close the walls.

Regards

And it fits perfectly, front as well as rear - great construction!
