About product

Photo-etched parts 1:48 F6F-5 exterior (Eduard)

This is a set of photo-etched parts in brass for detailing the exterior of the carrier-based fighter Grumman F6F-5 Hellcat in 1:48 scale. It is not a model of the aircraft but an exterior accessory for a plastic kit.

What the set is for

The set brings photo-etched exterior parts for the Grumman F6F-5 Hellcat model in 1:48 scale - usually covers, grilles, panels, bracing and other fine outer elements that plastic parts cannot render faithfully. It raises the realism of the surface of the model.

The real subject

The Grumman F6F Hellcat was an American carrier-based fighter of the Second World War. The F6F-5 version was the most widely built and the highest-performing variant, with a powerful radial engine and a sturdy structure. The Hellcat became one of the most successful carrier fighters in the Pacific.

Usage tips

Separate the parts carefully with a sharp knife or with photo-etch shears, make the bends along the engraved lines, ideally in a bending tool, and glue them with super glue (cyanoacrylate) or epoxy. Degrease the surface before painting; photo-etched parts hold paint better once a base primer has been sprayed on.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers who want to raise the fidelity of detail in 1:48 scale.
  • Advanced builders used to working with photo-etch.
  • Anyone after more accurate shapes without engraving into plastic.
  • Collectors building a particular type of machine down to the detail.

This is a separate set of photo-etched parts, an accessory, not a model of the aircraft. The plastic kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.
