Brassmasters range of etched windows is designed to complement the popular Scalescenes.com range of buildings and scratchbuilding materials. Designed in collaboration with Scalescenes.com, this range of etches enhances the windows and provides additional details to match the photo-realistic card finishes on these card buildings.

As the Scalescenes kits can be built in many different configurations the etches are provided in packs allowing the purchaser to choose just the sizes they need.

The factory windows feature separate hinged panes and the sash windows fold to give different levels of relief on the glazing. Additional features are also provided for details such as tie-bar plates and door furniture.

Initially 16 types are available covering sash, bay, arched and industrial windows - click for full details including sizes of the range - 4mm or 2mm. To see which packs are used on individual Scalescenes buildings click here.

NEW - Scalescenes have added a free to download 'grime-covered' window sheet specifically to place behind your etched windows. Follow this link to download: Grimy windows.

 

Assembly tips

Small tabs of duct or gaffer adhesive tape can be used to permanently secure the finished windows to the inside of the wall. Alternatively, superglue or other adhesives may be used.

To model the hinged lights in the factory windows open saw a diagonal cut in the edge of a piece of MDF with a piecing saw to hold the hinged section. This allows you hold the section steady and position the main window without burning your fingers.
