About product

Eduard 1:48 Tempest Mk. V cockpit - resin cockpit

A resin accessory set from the Czech maker Eduard, from its Brassin range. It replaces the cockpit from the plastic kit of the Hawker Tempest Mk. V fighter in 1:48 scale with a complete casting with crisp edges, fine raised features and details that cannot be made in injection-molded plastic. The package holds resin parts; the aircraft model is not part of it and has to be bought separately.

The real subject

The Hawker Tempest Mk. V was a British fighter of the end of the Second World War. It was derived from the Typhoon but received a new thin wing and the Napier Sabre H-block engine, thanks to which it was among the fastest piston machines at low altitude. It served for intruder attacks on ground targets and for intercepting fast targets. Its cockpit with its good view is clearly visible on a model, especially when the canopy is built open - which is why a detailed interior pays off.

Building and painting tips

First wash the castings in lukewarm water with dish soap so that no mold release agent is left on them. Cut the casting blocks off with a saw or a cutting disc, never snap them; do not breathe the dust from sanding resin and sand under water if you can. Try the cockpit dry before gluing it in - sometimes the inner walls of the fuselage have to be thinned. It is bonded with super glue. Spray the interior with primer, then the base shade, and lift the details with dry-brushing and a dark wash that flows into the recesses. Finish the cockpit and let it dry before you close the fuselage.

Who the set is for

  • builders of British fighters of the Second World War in 1:48 scale
  • modelers building a model with the canopy open
  • anyone interested in the greatest possible level of interior detail
  • more advanced modelers with experience of resin and super glue

The set is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and the base model are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It is not. This is a resin cockpit accessory; the base plastic kit in 1:48 scale has to be bought separately.

As a rule yes. The original plastic interior is removed and sometimes the inner walls of the fuselage have to be thinned so that the casting seats exactly.

It is bonded with super glue and painted once primer is on. Cement for plastic does not dissolve resin.

Mold release agent clings to the castings. Without washing, the paint would peel.
