About product

TBM-3 Avenger – seats from the PRINT range in 1:48 scale

This item is not an aircraft kit but an accessory set for a model of the Avenger carrier torpedo bomber in its TBM-3 version, in 1:48 scale. It covers the seats, that is the parts that are best seen once the cockpit is finished and on which fineness of shape tells immediately. Eduard uses the PRINT designation for parts made by 3D printing. Seats for the TBF-1C version are offered by Eduard as a separate item, so check which version you are building before you buy.

The real subject

The Avenger was the largest single-engine carrier aircraft of its day and a mainstay of American naval aviation in the Pacific. It carried a torpedo or bombs in an enclosed bomb bay, had a crew of three and folding wings, which saved space in the hangar. After Grumman turned its production capacity over to fighters, manufacture was taken over by the Eastern Aircraft division of General Motors, and the TBM designation comes from that. The TBM-3 version was the most numerous and after the war served in other countries as well, among other duties as an anti-submarine and patrol machine.

Building and painting tips

Paint the seats separately, before you settle them into the cockpit; otherwise they are hard to reach once the interior has been assembled. Interior green makes the base, a dark wash into the recesses adds depth and fine dry brushing brings out the edges. Resin parts are bonded with super glue, and a primer is useful before painting.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers building the Avenger in its TBM-3 version in 1:48 scale
  • Anyone interested in a more faithful cockpit with the canopy open
  • Builders who want to improve the interior without extensive modification
  • Modelers used to working with small resin parts

FAQ

No. This is an accessory set of seats for a model of the Avenger in 1:48 scale.

Eduard released a separate set for the TBF-1C. This item is listed for the TBM-3 version.

The TBF was built by Grumman, the TBM was produced by the Eastern Aircraft division of General Motors, to which manufacture passed.

Best separately, before they are glued into the cockpit. Once the fuselage is closed up you can no longer reach them properly.
