About product

Lewis Mk.I Stripped Half Heat Sinks machine gun 1:48 (GasPatch Models)

A resin detail set that captures the British Lewis Mk.I aircraft machine gun in the lightened form without the outer jacket, with the aluminum finned radiator along part of the barrel length, in 1:48 scale. It is not an airplane model but an accessory for superdetailing. The package holds a pair, two resin castings.

The real subject

The Lewis was a British light machine gun of 7.7 mm caliber (.303 British) with a pan magazine on top, a common flexible weapon of the aircraft observer in the First World War. An aluminum finned radiator around the barrel served for cooling, and its outer jacket was often taken off on aircraft.

The variant and its use

This form is stripped, without the cylindrical jacket, while the fins of the radiator remain along only part of the barrel length, that is half. The weapon suits the observers' flexible mounts of First World War biplanes.

Usage and painting tips

Wash the parts free of mold release agent residue, separate the casting blocks carefully and bond them with super glue (cyanoacrylate). Wear respiratory protection while sanding. The exposed barrel and the fins come out well with a dark metal base and a fine dry brush.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers of First World War aircraft in 1:48 scale
  • Builders who want the half finned radiator
  • More experienced modelers used to working with resin
  • Lovers of maximum armament detail

The accessory is supplied unassembled and unpainted, as resin castings. Glue, paints and the base kit are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

The finned radiator is retained along only part of the barrel length, not along the whole length as on the full version.

The package holds a pair, that is two resin castings of the Lewis machine gun.

We recommend super glue (cyanoacrylate); wash the parts and separate them from the casting blocks first.
