1:72 British Harrier Gr.5 correct nose

Quickboost Harrier Gr.5 correct nose 1:72

This resin accessory is a precisely shaped replacement nose for models of the British BAe Harrier Gr.5 attack aircraft in 1:72 scale. It is not an aircraft model but a corrective part that replaces the inaccurately shaped nose of the base kit and brings the silhouette of the forward fuselage into the right form.

What the set offers

• a correctly shaped replacement nose
• a correction of the silhouette of the forward fuselage
• a clean surface and sharp edges on the casting
• a marked improvement in the fidelity of the model

Fitting and painting

Wash the part free of the mold release agent, cut off the casting block and clean up the cut surface. On the fuselage the original nose is cut off and the resin part is glued on with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue); the joint is fine-tuned with filler and sanded down. It is painted together with the rest of the fuselage in the scheme of the particular machine. Protect your airways when sanding resin.

Who the set is for

• builders of the Harrier who are bothered by the inaccurate shape of the nose
• modelers aiming at maximum fidelity of the silhouette
• the more experienced, who can manage cutting the fuselage and filling

The accessory is supplied unassembled and unpainted. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.
