How many times has your wife told you that the belt has to match the
shoes? Or that she has to buy a new dress that matches the earrings?
Similar principles apply to accessories and modelling. You may wear
green slippers with checked socks without any issue, but you would
not put a cell phone or a Roman helmet on a Napoleonic figure. Dont
for a moment would you think that airplanes escape from the limitless
possibilities provided by accessories.
Most ensembles begin with the primary basic component. First, we buy
a Kettenkrad and then we think about where it can be placed and the
many appropriate accessories to be placed in its environment. Some crazy modelers prefer to plan things
years in advance, carefully considering every object required whether it is pine leaves or old newspapers,
a tree or half a house. Many go as far as to buy each peace. However, there are exceptions and some get
completed, but most will end up switching to a completely different project, requiring more planning and
sourcing more accessories. At the end of the day, we modelers aren’t so strange, are we?
At TWA we have set out to give you the psychological support you need once you have finished the whole
aircraft accurately with its dirt and wear... and you realize that you have completely forgotten about the
accessories. Without being aware of it, you still have to finish the wheels, the ladder, the support vehicles...
Don’t fall apart champion, you can handle this complexity and much more.
Some of these small accessories are going to take us to unknown territories, places where the aviator has
never been before. Like the world of “things that have wheels and move on the ground”. For those who
have sworn off the idea that they would ever modelling anything that doesn’t fly, perhaps it is time to
consider and start planning a small diorama or complete a base with some support vehicles such as a cart
or a tanker. This is another way to personalize your models and make each piece truly unique. Finished
aircraft should be presented in authentic context, this practice offers you exciting new challenges and the
possibility of doing new things. At the end of the day, this is modelling. We don’t insert screws on an as-
sembly line, we create and innovate!
