About product

A-10A Thunderbolt II 3D Color Instrument Panel 1:48 (Kits-World)

A color decal with a raised relief for the cockpit of the A-10A attack aircraft in 1:48 scale. Unlike a printed surface, the panel has real depth, so light breaks on the dials and the covers and the cockpit under the glazing looks alive. The set is an accessory for a plastic model, not a model in its own right.

The real subject

The A-10 Thunderbolt II is an American single-seat subsonic attack aircraft from the Fairchild Republic design office, built around its cannon and intended to support ground forces. The A-10A version is the original single-seat configuration without the later digital displays, so the instrument panel is fitted with classic circular instruments, exactly the kind of detail that is hard to paint by hand on a model.

How the set is applied

A relief decal differs from a flat one in having a thickness of its own. The base therefore has to be smooth and gloss, otherwise air will be trapped under the decal and the surface will silver. Cut the decal as close as you can, release it in lukewarm water and seat it on its target surface without needless sliding. Apply the softener drop by drop along the edges and let it work by itself, leaving the decal undisturbed for at least 45 minutes; do not run a brush over the relief, or the raised details will be squashed or torn off. When it is dry, go over the surroundings with matte varnish and leave the dials themselves gloss, so that they read as glass.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of the A-10A attack aircraft in 1:48 scale with an open or well-glazed cockpit.
  • Modelers who want an analog instrument panel without the long job of painting dials.
  • Those who prefer a decal to a photo-etched set.
  • A straight-from-the-box build that only needs lifting by one visible detail.

This is an accessory for building a model, not a kit. The model, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It replaces a flat plastic or printed instrument panel. It is stuck onto the part in the cockpit and gives it both color and a raised relief.

The set is listed for the A-10A version. Later configurations have different cockpit equipment, so we do not recommend using it on them without comparing the shape of the panel.

Yes, but only drop by drop and without spreading it with a brush. The relief is softer than a flat decal and is easily damaged by brushing.

It is worth unifying the base with a dark shade and giving it a gloss coat. A unified gloss base prevents the edges from silvering.
