About product

The real subject

The Blackburn Buccaneer is a British twin-engine strike aircraft built for attack at low altitude and high speed. It was created for carrier service with the Royal Navy and passed to the Royal Air Force after the large carriers were withdrawn. The crew consists of a pilot and a navigator seated one behind the other. A striking feature is the rotating bomb bay, which opens by rotating the inner part of the fuselage, and the split airbrake at the end of the fuselage. The designation S.2B belongs to the version that served with the Royal Air Force.

What the set contains

Photo-etched parts of thin metal sheet. Etching holds a thickness that neither injection molding nor casting can reach, which is why it is used where a plastic part necessarily comes out thicker than the subject would warrant. The parts are held on the fret by thin tabs and are separated only at the moment you fit them.

Building and painting tips

  • Separate the parts with a sharp blade on a hard surface; nippers will wave the edge.
  • Make the bends in a bending tool or over the edge of a ruler, so that the edge is straight and sharp.
  • Glue metal with cyanoacrylate; cement for plastic has no effect on it.
  • Degrease the surface and apply a primer before painting, as paint does not hold on bare metal.
  • Plan the fitting of the interior parts before you close up the fuselage and the cockpit.

Who it is for

For modelers who are bothered by robust plastic parts on a finished model and who already have experience of working with tweezers. Building with photo-etch is slower than working with plastic alone, but the result is finer at first glance.

The package holds photo-etched parts. A kit, paints and glue are not included, unless stated otherwise.
