Matho Models 1/35 Beer Cardboard Boxes
Add realistic beer packaging to your 1/35 scenes with Matho Models Cardboard Boxes – Beer. The set includes 36 cardboard boxes in five designs, offering a varied selection of drink packaging to add small-scale detail to your modelling projects.
Each box is printed on slightly thickened paper to give the assembled item a realistic appearance. The inside is also printed with a brown cardboard texture, so you can display individual boxes open or closed. This interior detail gives you additional flexibility when arranging the boxes and makes them particularly useful for detailing scenes where beer packaging is required.
36 Boxes in Five Designs
With 36 individual boxes across five different designs, the set provides plenty of scope for creating varied arrangements. You can assemble boxes closed or display them open to reveal the printed brown cardboard texture inside, creating different configurations from the same set.
Cutting and Assembly
For clean results, cut the boxes from the sheet using a sharp, preferably new, knife and a steel ruler. Also remove the thick white or black lines between the upper and lower flaps to help achieve a cleaner fit during assembly.
After cutting around the complete outline of a box, make one cut to the left and another to the right of each thick line. Use the tip of the knife where the line remains attached to the box, then carefully move the knife sideways to remove the unwanted piece.
For easier folding, gently run a knife along the bending lines using a steel ruler as a guide. Apply only light pressure so that the lines are scored rather than cut. This helps create neat, sharp bends when forming each individual box.
Once the boxes have been folded and glued together, exposed white paper edges on the coloured designs can be lightly painted in the box colour. This finishing step helps disguise the white paper edges while retaining the printed exterior designs and brown cardboard-textured interiors.
