From sprue to finished model
Each build follows the real rhythm of the hobby. You snip parts off the frame, piece them together step by step, then apply finishing touches before the paint comes out. The game handles the fiddly rituals for you: no glue to spread on every part, no burrs to file down. A helper even attaches loose parts to the model at the press of a button. Tools improve as you go, so precision work and clean finishes get easier the longer you play. Finishing a model feels properly rewarding, and you can take it at whatever pace suits you, one part at a time.
Paint it straight, or make it yours
Once the model stands assembled, the creative half starts. Stick to the brief and paint it faithfully, or go your own way with a full palette of colors, an airbrush, a fine brush for detail work, and decals to top it off. The tools have real range: a bucket for quick coverage, a brush for care, an airbrush for smooth coats. You decide how much effort each finish deserves. Some players airbrush everything from start to end; others fill in broad colors and call it done. Either way, the model is yours, and the game never punishes a loose interpretation.
A workshop with a story
Career mode follows in the footsteps of your grandfather Stan, unlocking secrets of his past as you take on commissions and enter competitions on the way to becoming a master craftsman. Selling finished models earns money for new kits and better tools, so each job feeds the next. And when a model is done, PhotoBooth mode lets you stage it: pick a background, add effects, and arrange the scene before sharing the shot straight from the game. The Complete Edition packs in every DLC, from military planes and tanks to Frostpunk models, fantasy figurines and a futuristic e-motorbike.
