These small stainless steel silhouette figures are extremely intricate and display amazing detail. Even in the 1:500 scale you can recognize Le Corbusier´s proportional figure – the modulor – and the woman with the baby carriage. The production process, a photo-mechanical etching technique, was developed using the semi-conductor technique that is used in the production of computer chips as a paradigm. The result is that it is possible to cut the basic stainless steel material to exact specifications. There is less than 0.1 mm deviation! Along with people, there is also a dog and the modulor on the flat blank. In comparison to other silhouette figures made, for example, from plastic or brass, these matte finished, stainless steel figures and objects have an elegant, modern but nonetheless timeless appearance. Each individual figure comes equipped with a pin that stays with the figure when it is broken away from the frame at the predetermined breaking point, which makes the removal that much easier. A pair of scissors or a small side-cutting pliers are perfect for this work. If the figures are to be attached to a model made from a yielding material like, for example, rigid foam, a small hole should be punched and the pin on the bottom of the figure should be inserted into it. A certain amount of dexterity is required when having to glue the figures to a hard substrate, particularly in the case of the smallest ones; it is best to work with a tweezers while applying the glue (e.g. SUPER GLUE) in very small amounts with a syringe.
