About product

The bombardier's station interior for the Boeing B-17 G Flying Fortress in 1:48 scale

A more extensive resin detail set for a model of the four-engine bomber B-17 G in 1:48 scale. It rounds out the space in the glazed nose where the bombardier and the navigator worked. It is not a kit of the aircraft; the set is fitted into a plastic model under way, and necessarily before the fuselage is closed. The nose is precisely the most visible part of the interior on the B-17 thanks to the large area of glazing, so the investment in detail pays off.

The real subject

The Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress was an American four-engine heavy bomber and one of the symbols of daylight strategic bombing over Europe. The B-17 G version was the most numerous: it got an added lower nose gun turret and overall the strongest defensive armament of the whole range. The crew numbered around ten men, and the bombardier's station in the nose was the place from which the success of a whole raid was decided, including the operation of the sight for releasing the bombs.

Usage tips

  • Fit the set and paint it before you glue the halves of the fuselage together; after that you will no longer reach inside.
  • Wash the parts in lukewarm water with detergent and cut the casting blocks away with a saw.
  • Glue with cyanoacrylate glue, and try the joints out dry first.
  • The interior stands out with light brightening and a dark wash into the recesses.
  • Fit the glazing of the nose at the very end and protect it with masking tape.

Who the set is for

For advanced modelers who build a large bomber as their main project and want the glazed nose to stand up to a close-up view. It calls for planning the course of the build in advance.

FAQ

Before the halves of the fuselage are glued together. Once the airframe is closed, the space of the nose can no longer be filled out or painted.

It is not. It is an interior detail set for a plastic model in 1:48 scale; the kit itself is not included.

Rather not. It calls for work with resin, planning the sequence and painting the interior before the fuselage is closed.
