About product

Westland Sea King, electronics in 1:48

This Black Dog set aims at the instrument part of the British Sea King. While the engines and the rotor are visible on a model of their own accord, the electronic equipment stays hidden inside, and that is exactly what makes it tempting for a builder: showing it means offering the viewer something they will never see on an ordinarily built model.

The real subject

The British Sea Kings built under license at Westland differed from the American original in powerplant and equipment and served in a number of roles until recent times. Alongside anti-submarine work with a dipping sonar and radar, they made their name above all in search and rescue, where they became an icon: practically everyone in Great Britain knows the yellow finish of the rescue machines. The transport versions then carried Marine Corps units and bore a nickname derived from the jungle, where they proved themselves.

Recommended procedure

The internal equipment is best painted away from the model, when you can reach it from every side. Alternating close shades and a light accent on the edges helps, because a single flat area would turn the detail into a shapeless block. Take the lighting of the display case into account when you decide which side of the fuselage to open.

Who it suits

  • fans of British naval and rescue helicopters
  • modelers who enjoy exposing internal equipment
  • builders who want to go beyond the contents of the base kit

The Sea King is sold separately; the set adds detail inside it.

FAQ

The license machines from Westland had a different powerplant and equipment and filled different roles in British service.

Only if you open a panel and think the angle of view and the lighting of the display case through. Without that the work is lost.

It is not necessary. The electronics and the powerplant are separate subjects and each can be dealt with on its own.
