About product

New Ware ADVANCED masks for the Westland Wyvern S.4 1:48

A covering set for a model of the British carrier-borne strike aircraft Westland Wyvern S.4 in 1:48 scale, in the ADVANCED form. With this maker that is the middle level of extent: it lies between the narrowest and the widest variant, which are carried separately. The note about the early shape of the machine in the name specifies which production batch the cut is reckoned for.

An unusual machine from the end of the propeller era

The Wyvern arose at a time when jet propulsion was only beginning to establish itself, and it represented a dead end of development: a single-seat carrier-borne machine with a turboprop engine and a pair of contra-rotating propellers on a common axis. The combination of extraordinary thrust at low speed and great weight made operations on deck a demanding discipline. The type lasted only a short while in service with the Fleet Air Arm and saw combat during the action at Suez in 1956. It reaches the modeling market rarely, so it makes all the more sense to devote care to the glazing.

Advice on the work

The early and the later machines differed in details, so do not mix masks between versions. Clean the glazing before applying them, press the edges down thoroughly and divide the spraying into layers. Lift the paint off at the start of drying so that the edge does not tear.

Who the set is useful for

  • Builders of the Wyvern in the early form in 1:48 scale
  • Those interested in British carrier hardware of the fifties
  • Modelers for whom the basic level is not enough and the widest one is needless
  • Collectors of unusual machines from the turn of the propeller and jet eras

FAQ

The Wyvern changed during production and the details of the glazing are not the same on all batches. The cut is reckoned for the early shape of the machine.

In the middle. The maker carries a narrower and a wider variant for the same aircraft as well, which are sold as separate items.

It carried a turboprop engine with a pair of contra-rotating propellers and was one of the last British carrier-borne machines with propeller propulsion.
