Proud To Announce The Kitmaster Genesis Self Assembly Southern Building Kit Range
Dapol
Apr 24, 2024
Kitmaster Genesis Southern Buildings
Dapol have a long standing tradition of manufacturing self assembly kits in the UK. Some of our Kitmaster tooling dates back to the late 1950’s and is a real testament to how good the tool makers in this country were back then.
The kits will be laser cut from the finest self-coloured card and will include all the necessary injection moulded or 3D printed accessory parts (including glazing) to complete the model. Where appropriate the models will be supplied with printed interior decoration. All you need is glue.
The kits are based on real world prototypes but are easily customizable lending themselves to “kit bashing” should the modeler wish to have something truly bespoke on their layout. Each kit will have a set of detailed assembly instructions available online.
The images below are of prototype models - any imperfections will be corrected prior to production
