About product

Gloster Gladiator Mk.I/Mk.II - engine, exhausts and cowling (1:48, SBS Model)

This resin set replaces the simplified plastic parts from the box with a more faithfully cast radial engine, a set of exhausts and a reworked engine cowling. It is not an aircraft kit but an accessory for Gloster Gladiator models in 1:48 scale. With the cowling open, detail that is otherwise hidden comes into its own.

The real subject

The Gloster Gladiator was the last British fighter biplane taken into service. It was powered by the Bristol Mercury radial engine and went into action at the beginning of the Second World War, among other places in the defense of Malta. The accurate engine and its cowling are among the most noticeable features of the whole aircraft.

Usage tips

First wash the resin parts free of mold release agent, cut the casting blocks off with a saw or a cutter and sand the faces with your airways protected. Glue them with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue). A primer and an airbrush are recommended before painting; an exposed engine comes into its own with fine highlighting and weathering.

Who the set is for

  • Advanced modelers working with resin
  • Builders who want an exposed and faithful engine
  • Collectors of interwar and early wartime aircraft

This is an accessory set, not a complete model. The basic kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

No. It is a resin detail set (engine, exhausts, cowling) for adding to a Gloster Gladiator model in 1:48 scale, not a complete kit.

The parts are cast in resin. Wash them free of mold release agent before gluing and use cyanoacrylate.

For more experienced modelers who have already worked with resin accessories and want a faithful, exposed engine.
