Wooden Barrels and Buckets
A perfect addition to your diorama or display base is this Brengun wooden barrels and buckets set. Brengun provides three resin wooden buckets, three large wooden barrels and three small wooden barrels. The package is non re-sealable packaging so once the parts are out of the bag, don’t lose them – escpecially the smaller barrels. There are no instructions provided for color, but a quick internet search will provide a wide spectrum of painting options.
Brengun has molded the parts in light grey resin with no bubbles that I was able to find. There are no mold seams to sand off and the resin plug is easily removed from the bottom with a razor saw.
Although most paints will adhere to resin alone, I would recommend that you wash the parts to remove any remaining mold release and prime them first. I painted them with a variety of Vallejo browns, from dark to light and then painted on the metal bands. Once everything is dry I will be applying a Vallejo dark grey wash.
My thanks to Hauler-Brengun and IPMS/USA for the chance to review this great kit.
Highly recommended!
