Gecko Models model kits with a still young history
Gecko Models was founded in the 2010s. The Asian manufacturer impresses with its new developments. The Gecko approach: to produce striking, sometimes rarely implemented models as high-quality injection-moulded kits instead of reissues. The details and buildability of the model kits are often praised by model building enthusiasts, as is the division of the construction stages, which allows for clean painting and ageing planning. Gecko models impress with themes that are off the beaten track and are fun to build thanks to their good kit layout.
Gecko Models kits with a high level of detail
Gecko scores highly with its choice of themes and engineering: fine engravings and rows of rivets, realistic weld seams, sharply defined small parts. The kits come with many optional parts for creating different variants (armament, covers, early/late versions) and several marking options.
The kits often include photo-etched parts (PE), clear parts and discreetly designed interiors.
The layout is dry-fit-friendly, allowing for quick dry adjustments and preventing frustration during construction.
The surfaces are ideal for pre/post-shading, washes, filters and chipping.
