About product

An-225 Mriya 1:144 — a metal engine set (Metallic Details)

A detail set in 1:144 scale aimed at the engine parts of a model of the An-225 Mriya cargo aircraft. This is not a kit but an accessory for adding detail to a plastic model. The engine nacelles are visually dominant on this aircraft, and plastic molding in a small scale usually manages neither the thin edges of the intakes nor fine mesh.

The real subject

The An-225 Mriya was a six-engine cargo aircraft derived from the design of the An-124, powered by D-18T turbofan engines hung in nacelles under the wing. A single example was completed, intended for the carriage of oversize loads. Six engines, three under each wing half, are among its most conspicuous recognition features.

Building and painting tips

Thin metal edges of air intakes call for careful forming; true a circular part up on a round handle or a drill bit of matching diameter, so that it seats without rippling. Spray the inside of the nacelle in a light shade before the edge is glued in, as a brush will not reach into the depth afterwards. Degrease the metal surfaces before painting and lay a primer on. On the exhaust parts, graded metal shades applied with an airbrush in thin coats look more faithful than one flat metallic finish. Stir metallic paints thoroughly before use; the pigment sinks to the bottom.

Who the set is for

  • modelers building large airliners in 1:144
  • those who want thin edges on the engine intakes
  • builders used to fine work with tweezers
  • collectors finishing a model down to the detail

This is an accessory for adding detail to a plastic kit, not a model of its own. The kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

The set is aimed at adding detail to the engine parts of the model. The exact extent of the parts is given in the instructions supplied with the set.

Working with thin metal parts in 1:144 calls for tweezers, a sharp scalpel and a steady hand. For a first encounter with photo-etch it is better to start in a larger scale.

Apply thin coats with an airbrush and grade the shades slightly. Always stir metallic paint thoroughly, or the pigment will stay at the bottom.
