Description

WWI German Fuel Drums – 200 Liter Benzin Barrels

Realistic Battlefield Logistics Detail

This German fuel drum set helps you create authentic supply and logistics scenes for Wargaming. The design represents 200 liter fuel barrels used for transporting and storing бензин near front-line positions.

Both barrels include top markings reading “Benzin 200 Liter.” Because of this detail, the models add extra realism to any historical setup. In addition, the open barrel with separate lid allows more dynamic display options.

Authentic Military Supply Equipment

Fuel played an important role in supporting transport vehicles, generators, and equipment. Therefore, fuel drums became common elements in rear trench areas and supply zones.

Moreover, the cylindrical shape and reinforced edges reflect early 20th century industrial barrel construction. As a result, the set works perfectly in depot scenes, trench support areas, and vehicle maintenance setups.

Materials and Finish

We produce the barrels using high-precision 3D printing. We use durable PLA material to maintain clean detail and structural strength.

The set arrives unpainted. Therefore, you can prime and paint it according to your own style. The surface works well with acrylic paints, enamel paints, washes, and weathering effects.

Working Tips

First, gently clean the models before painting. Then apply a plastic primer for better adhesion.

After priming, apply a base color such as field grey or dark industrial tones. Next, use washes to emphasize edges and surface details. In addition, add rust effects and fuel stains for extra realism.

Finally, highlight raised areas with light dry brushing. As a result, the fuel drums will look realistic and field-used.
