N Scale (1:160) K100 LTL Shorty with a daycab

Description: This is NOT a toy and it is NOT appropriate for children. This is a model for adult train enthusiasts, collectors and modellers. Please note this is N Scale (1:160 or about 12mm human figure) model and is slightly larger than my average wargaming models. Legendary American semi K100 Short frame single axle used for LTL (Less Than Truckload) operations. Also neat vehicle to have on your busy trailer yard as a truck-shunter/switcher. The truck was in production from 1963 until 2003. Instantly recognizable due to unique flat-pancake cab in COE (cab over engine) configuration. This model was meticulously modeled to print in N scale with robust detailing for safe handling and easy painting. Coming soon extended cabe and sleeper cabs for long distance hauling. We did not simply resize existing models, we made this from ground up to be a proper N scale model by beefing up detail that you cannot simply re-scale! The result is super fine detail that allows for safe handling downright to side-view mirrors and exhaust pipes! The trailer features retracted landing gear and super fine tie-down eyelets along sides. The truck features recessed windshield and side windows to allow for easy painting - simply flood this area with thinned dark wash or paint and allow it to dry. Other figures seen in photos are NOT included. NOTE to train guys - This model was designed specifically to be printed at N scale. The small detail has been beefed up to allow for safe handling and easy painting. What you see in photo is the real model, not high-definition computer rendition that is IMPOSSIBLE to print. When shopping for N scale vehicles (at igMakes or other sellers), always look for photographs of printed models. Unscrupulous sellers will show off high-detail models that simply cannot be reproduced on small N scale print regardless how good printer or resin they use. The big red flag is lack of actual model photos, instead you are presented with gray computer CAD rendition of what model looks like. If a model was not designed for N scale, scaling down will result in small detail dissolving, or if they do print successfully, the fragility will not allow for safe handling or will break during shipment! i.e. an inch diameter antenna on large model shrunk to N scale will be sub-milimeter and will break of the moment you touch it - assuming it survives the shipping igMakes N scale model difference: 1. built from ground up for N scale, all detail will print flawlessly and allow for safe handling 2. I DO NOT hollow my models EVER! You will love the solid hefty chunk of resin feel in your hand! There is ZERO chance of uncured resin pouring out. Beware of "clear resin" scam where sellers claim the purpose was insertion of lights. They are hollowing models to save on resin and result is often raw resin dripping out of the model. 3. Our flawed prints go to trash and are NEVER sold to customers! 4. Our models comes with REMOVED SUPPORTS. Remaining micro supports can be scrubbed off with wooden toothpick. NO MORE WIRE CUTTERS nightmares and broken models!! 5. Our prints are thoroughly washed and ready to be primed and painted 6. I personally printed and painted all models you see in photos - what you see is exactly what you will get UNPAINTED 7. 14 days warranty - not happy with my model for ANY reason, send them back (you cover return shipping) for full refund of purchase price (shipping excluded) 8. Most models are already printed, in-stock and ship same or next day! No more waiting for weeks and wondering if you will ever receive your order. We make NO EXCUSES, we make models instead. 9. 100% NO-BS customer service!! We will work with you! We are a passionate small family business and we value your time and the fact you chose to spend your money on our models! 10. ig (the designer and the store owner) is big tabletop wargamer and N scale train enthusiast (C&O, Virginia, Southern). I know what works and how to make models right! My PROMISE is never to sell anyone inferior junk just in order to make few bucks. Because we make our own models, when there is a problem, we go back to CAD and fix it! One (1) truck included. Included figures are UNPAINTED. NO other figures in photo background are included. If you are interested in painted figures, please contact me for more info. This is an unique in-house design and print. 100% Made in USA! THANK YOU for your consideration! ig
