Historical Notes and Faithful Detail

These Renault taxis were a notable part of early wartime logistics, and this model reflects the vehicle form and key features. Careful assembly highlights the taxi's original engineering and period character.

Build Workflow and Final Display

Parts are engineered for accurate assembly but do require patient trimming and glue work. After painting and detailing, the model presents well on a shelf or as part of a period vignette.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Material: High-quality plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Required for authentic finish
The kit typically includes basic markings; check the instructions for decal placement. Additional decals can be used for unit or period specifics.
Small suspension and interior components require careful fitting. Dry-fitting parts before glueing and using minimal adhesive improves results.
Subtle panel shading, light weathering, and worn edges on paintwork help convey age and authenticity. Add a simple base to frame the model.
