The Academy 18153 - Da Vinci Series Arch Bridge NO.9 turns a famous architectural sketch into a tangible model, letting modellers handle the same basic principles da Vinci explored. The kit focuses on accurate shapes and straightforward assembly for a satisfying build.
Da Vinci's approach to arches prioritised efficient use of material and clever load distribution. This model demonstrates those ideas in a simplified way that highlights the elegance of the original concept.
Take time on seam lines and subtle weathering to bring out the bridge's form. Even without glue, careful sanding and selective paint will make the model stand out in a mixed collection or on a dedicated shelf.
