Responsibility details are not available.
This item is not a kit of the aircraft but a detail set from the maker Black Dog, intended to complete a plastic model of the Harrier or the Sea Harrier in 1:48 scale. Black Dog specializes in resin sets that give a model content and context - that is the elements which turn a bare kit into a scene that comes across as a real machine in service. The exact make-up of the package is not stated, so nothing is promised about it here; what is certain is the brand, the scale and what the set is for.
The Harrier was a British combat aircraft with short and vertical take-off, built around a jet engine with thrust vectoring through rotating nozzles. It was precisely the ability to change the direction of thrust that allowed it to operate from short strips, improvised posts and the deck of smaller ships. The naval Sea Harrier version came about for operation from ships and differed from the land-based variants above all in a modified forward fuselage with a raised cockpit and in different equipment. The type belongs among the most recognizable aircraft of the second half of the twentieth century.
First wash the resin parts in lukewarm water with detergent, because otherwise paint will not hold on them. Cut the casting blocks off with a saw or a cutting disc and do not break them. Sand wet and with breathing protection. It is glued with cyanoacrylate glue, that is super glue. Tiny parts are best painted while still on the casting block: spray the base on with an airbrush, draw the detail out with a dark wash and emphasize the edges with a dry brush. If you use the set in a diorama or in a scene beside a model, it pays to think the placing over before you start gluing.
The set is supplied unassembled and unpainted. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
