About product

Quickboost external fuel tank P-61A/B Black Widow in 1:48 scale

This resin accessory from Quickboost in 1:48 scale offers a faithfully cast drop tank for a model of the American Northrop P-61A/B Black Widow night fighter. It is not an airplane kit but an add-on part that enriches the underwing load of a model with a smoothly cast teardrop tank with no parting seam.

The part

The P-61 Black Widow was an American twin-engine night fighter of the Second World War with a twin-boom tail. To extend its range it carried jettisonable drop tanks under the wings. The one-piece resin casting has no seams from gluing two plastic halves together, so filling and sanding fall away and the tank has a clean, aerodynamically smooth surface.

Usage tips

Wash the resin part in lukewarm soapy water because of the mold release. Cut off the casting block with a saw or a knife, sand the surface and protect your airways while sanding resin. Seat the tank on the wing pylons and bond it with super glue (cyanoacrylate). Apply a primer before painting so that the paint holds on the smooth resin.

Who it is for

  • For modelers building the P-61A or the P-61B in 1:48 scale
  • For anyone after a smooth drop tank with no seam
  • For advanced modelers used to working with resin
  • For builders of contest and display-case models

It is supplied as a resin accessory for experienced modelers, not as a standalone kit. Paints, glue and the base model are not included in the package.

A one-piece casting has no seam from gluing two halves together, so filling and sanding fall away and the tank has a smooth surface. Bond it with super glue and apply a primer.
