About product

Wellington Machine Gun Barrels – Oval Perforated 1:48 (Quickboost)

A resin detail part, not an airplane kit. This finely cast resin set from Quickboost (Aires) brings the barrels of the defensive machine guns of the British twin-engine Vickers Wellington bomber in 1:48 scale. It is the version with an oval perforated barrel cooling jacket, so the set matches one particular type of jacket and replaces the blunt plastic barrels with fine, exactly rendered castings.

What the set is for

The machine gun barrels in the defensive turrets are a small but conspicuous detail. The perforated barrel cooling jacket is a fine structure that the plastic from the box can only suggest; resin captures it crisply and cleanly. The thin, straight castings also look more convincing than thicker plastic parts, which warp easily.

Usage tips

  • Wash the parts in lukewarm soapy water to remove mold release residue
  • Cut off the tiny casting blocks carefully and sand the surfaces lightly with respiratory protection
  • Bond with super glue (cyanoacrylate)
  • Paint them in metallic shades and bring out the perforation with a light wash

Who the set is for

  • For builders of the Wellington bomber in 1:48 scale
  • For advanced modelers with experience of small resin parts
  • For lovers of fine and accurate defensive armament

This is a resin detail accessory, not a model. The base kit, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

No. These are resin machine gun barrels that complete a kit you already own. The base aircraft model has to be bought separately.

It refers to the type of barrel cooling jacket, the one with oval holes. The version chosen matches one particular jacket shape, so check that it suits your subject.

These are tiny parts, so work carefully. Wash them to remove mold release, cut off the casting blocks and bond them with super glue. Sand with respiratory protection.
