About product

Cannon barrels for the J1N1 Gekko 1:48 (Quickboost)

A set of resin barrels for the Japanese Nakajima J1N1 Gekko night fighter in 1:48 scale from Quickboost. It is not an airplane model, but a precisely cast detail part that replaces the cannon barrels from the base kit with a crisper rendering with faithful muzzles.

What the part is for

The J1N1 Gekko (Allied reporting name Irving) was a Japanese twin-engine aircraft of the Second World War that proved itself above all in the night fighter role. In this version it carried obliquely upward-firing 20 mm cannon (a system similar to the German Schraege Musik) for attacking bombers from below. The barrels are conspicuous, but in injection-molded plastic they tend to be thick or with closed muzzles. The resin replacements have a more faithful diameter and finely suggested muzzles.

Usage and painting tips

These are small, fragile parts: wash them free of mold release residue, separate them carefully from the casting block and glue them with cyanoacrylate glue; protect your airways when sanding. Paint the barrels in a dark metal shade such as burnt steel and, because of their exposed position, fit them at the end of the build.

Who the part is for

  • Modelers building the J1N1 Gekko in 1:48 scale
  • Anyone after more faithful barrels with suggested muzzles
  • Collectors of Japanese night fighters of the Second World War
  • Builders bothered by thick barrels from injection-molded plastic

The part is supplied as a resin accessory, unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and the base kit are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

No. These are resin cannon barrels, that is a detail accessory for the J1N1 Gekko kit. The base model has to be bought separately.

They have a more faithful diameter and finely suggested muzzles, so they look more realistic than thicker plastic parts.

They are washed free of mold release agent, cut from the casting block and glued with cyanoacrylate glue. Because they are fragile, fit them at the end of the build.
