About product

American fighter pilot, Second World War, European theater (1:48, Aerobonus)

A resin figure of an American fighter pilot of the Second World War flying over the European theater, in 1:48 scale from Aerobonus (the Aires range). It is not an aircraft model but an accessory figure meant to be painted and placed beside a model or in an airfield scene. The figure suits American fighters operating over Europe.

The real subject

The American fighter arm over Europe in the Second World War was made up above all of units of the Eighth Air Force based in England, which flew machines such as the P-47 Thunderbolt and the P-51 Mustang. A pilot in the flying suit, life vest and helmet of the day gives both the model and the diorama a human dimension and a sense of scale.

Assembly and painting tips

Wash the resin parts to remove mold release residue, cut off the casting blocks and clean up the joints with respiratory protection. Bond with super glue (cyanoacrylate). Paint the figure before the final assembly; primer works well, along with matte shades for the flying suit, a strongly colored life vest and the face brought out with a dry brush and glazing.

Who the figure is for

  • Builders of American fighters in 1:48 from the European theater
  • Anyone interested in American aviation over Europe in the Second World War
  • Modelers with resin experience
  • Those who want to show a pilot beside a model

The figure is supplied unpainted and cast in resin, meant to be glued together and painted. Paints, glue and a display base are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
