Tips for Building Dragon Model Kits

Dragon model kits are designed for serious hobbyists, and while they offer incredible detail, they also require patience and precision. Here are a few tips to help you get the best results:

• Take Your Time–Many Dragon models have small, intricate parts, so careful assembly is key. Measure twice, cut once!

• Use the Right Tools–A good set of modelling tools will make assembling and painting your kit much easier. We recommend investing in hobby knives, sprue cutters, tweezers, and sanding sticks to smooth the edges and seam lines. Deluxe Materials Precision Plastic Glue is a must-have for long-lasting hold, and a cutting mat can be useful for those long building sessions. 

• Apply Decals Carefully–High-quality decals add realism, so use decal-setting solutions for the best finish.

• Paint for Accuracy–Research historical information about your model to ensure accurate colour schemes and weathering effects. You can find colour recommendations in the model’s instructions.

• Experiment with Dioramas–Adding figures, landscapes, and buildings can bring your collection to life!
