Exterior photo-etched details for the Hs 123 in 1:48 scale

The package holds a photo-etched fret with exterior details of the airframe of the Henschel Hs 123 biplane. It is not an airplane kit: you use the set on a plastic model you have already bought and for which it is cut. The benefit of photo-etched metal lies mainly in thickness, as sheet metal parts, grilles, fittings and small stiffeners measure a fraction of a millimeter on the real aircraft and in plastic they cannot be cast other than oversize.

The real subject

The Hs 123 was a German single-engined biplane of the 1930s with fixed landing gear and a radial engine, assigned as a dive bomber and ground attack airplane. In construction it is a combination of a metal frame and fabric covering with prominent engine cowlings and fixed landing gear fairings, so there are a fair number of exterior details on a model and photo-etched metal tells on them markedly.

Tips for working it

Make the bends in a bending tool or between two razor blades so that the edge is sharp and true. If a part tears, anneal the brass briefly over a flame first and let it cool, which softens it. The original plastic detail that the photo-etched part replaces has to be cut off first and the area sanded flat, or the new part will not seat. Glue with a drop of thin super glue and let the joint set without pressure, so that the glue does not creep over the edge.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers building the Hs 123 in 1:48 scale
  • More experienced builders who have worked with photo-etched metal before
  • Anyone interested in German interwar aviation technology

The accessory is supplied unpainted. The kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

No. It is a photo-etched accessory of exterior details. The plastic Hs 123 kit for which it is cut has to be had separately.

Working with photo-etched metal calls for a sharp scalpel, tweezers and super glue. For a first encounter with photo-etched metal it is better to start with the flat parts and to try the more complicated bends on the waste of the fret first.

As a rule yes. The detail that the photo-etched part replaces is cut off and the area is sanded flat, so that the new part adheres over its whole surface.
