About product

Quickboost P-38 Lightning – gun barrels 1:72

This detail set from the Czech maker Quickboost (the Aires workshop) brings resin barrels for the concentrated armament housed in the nose of the Lockheed P-38 Lightning fighter, in 1:72 scale. The cast barrels have a crisper shape and finer muzzles than the plastic parts from the kit. The set is a replacement part, not a stand-alone model.

What it is for

The P-38 had its armament concentrated in the front of the nacelle, which makes the barrels a prominent and clearly visible detail. The resin replacement takes the place of the coarser plastic and refines the nose; a small but effective improvement that shows well from the front.

Usage tips

Separate the thin barrels from the casting block carefully with a fine saw. Glue with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue). Dark steel or burnished metal with discreet highlighting is a suitable finish; use respiratory protection when sanding resin.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers building the P-38 Lightning in 1:72 scale
  • Anyone after more accurate nose armament
  • Builders used to small, fragile resin parts

The set holds only the resin barrels. The base model, glue and paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

For Lockheed P-38 Lightning models in 1:72 scale. Compare how they seat in the nose with a dry fit.

Cyanoacrylate glue (super glue); classic cement for plastic will not hold on resin.

Working with thin resin barrels calls for a steady hand, but the swap itself is simple.
