The materials used look like the original materials and the pieces quality is based on the company's own production processes. Constructions should be modelled over a wooden base and from a previously cut out and assembled numbered cardboard structure. These figures are carefully assembled aided by cardboard strip angles, which make the modelling easier. Over the cardboard structure are built the walls and the roofs. For an accurate result it is recommended to smooth down some of the different pieces with sandpaper as well as all the walls once the model is finished, achieving a more attractive and realistic result. Ceramic stones are the most abundant material on most kits. They're fired at the appropriate temperature, so the stones can be easily sanded and fitted perfectly between them.
