About product

Mercedes D.III in 1:32 scale from Roden

This kit is not an aircraft model but a stand-alone collector model of the Mercedes D.III aircraft engine in 1:32 scale from Roden. It is an injection-molded plastic kit completed with photo-etched parts and a simple base for displaying the finished engine. The result is a striking display piece of a powerplant that can be built on its own or used as an accessory to a diorama.

The real subject

The Mercedes D.III was an inline six-cylinder liquid-cooled aircraft engine built by Daimler. It ranked among the most widespread German engines of the First World War and powered a number of fighters and reconnaissance aircraft. In its versions it reached an output of around one hundred and sixty to one hundred and seventy horsepower and stood out for its reliability.

Building and painting tips

Separate the parts with a sharp knife and clean them up with a sanding sponge. Glue with liquid cement for plastic and fix the small photo-etched components with cyanoacrylate glue. The engine stands out with a combination of metal shades, a dark wash into the recesses and gentle dry-brushed accentuation of the edges.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of aircraft engines and technical models
  • Modelers who build period First World War aircraft
  • Anyone interested in a striking display piece
  • More advanced builders interested in detail

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
