About product

Fw 190 inspection panel, early version, 1:48, Aires

A small add-on set in cast resin which replaces the drawing of the inspection panel on the fuselage of the Fw 190 in 1:48 scale. The casting offers sharper detail and the correct shape matching the early form, which differed on later machines. This is a workshop accessory to a build; the package holds neither the aircraft nor any other parts of the model.

The real subject

The Fw 190 was a single-engine fighter with a radial engine whose external fuselage shape went through a range of small changes during production. Service and inspection panels were among the details that differed in shape and position between the individual production series. For building a particular machine it therefore pays to verify whether the early form matches it.

Fitting and painting tips

The part is small, so separate it from the casting block with a modeling saw over a surface, so that it is not lost, and work with tweezers. First sand the area on the fuselage where the panel is to go flat, and if need be fill the original engraved lines and sand them over. It is glued with superglue; apply it in a minimal amount with a pin. Run thin filler into the gap around the perimeter and sand it gently, so that the panel does not look stuck on. A primer will then reveal any remains of the gap and any bubbles, and only after that spray the camouflage.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of the Fw 190 in 1:48 scale who care about the accuracy of fuselage detail
  • Modelers building a particular machine of an early production series
  • More experienced builders used to sanding and filling resin
  • Those who complete a model in small steps instead of with one large set

This is an accessory to a build, not a complete model. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

This is a small resin accessory replacing the inspection panel on the fuselage. The package holds neither a kit of the Fw 190 in 1:48 scale nor any other parts of the model.

By the particular machine you are building. The shape and position of the service panels changed during production, so it is advisable to compare them against documentation for that production series.

Sand the mating area on the fuselage flat, stick the part on with superglue and run thin filler into the perimeter gap. After sanding over and a primer the transition will disappear.

The part is small and working with it calls for a steady hand, tweezers and experience of sanding resin. For a complete beginner it is rather a more demanding accessory.
