Responsibility details are not available.
This resin accessory from the Quickboost brand brings accurately cast air intakes with the correct shape for a model of the American twin-boom Lockheed P-38J Lightning fighter in 1:72 scale. It is not a kit but a replacement part, which replaces the simplified intakes from the box with more faithful castings with the correct geometry of the opening.
The P-38 Lightning was an unmistakable twin-engine fighter with two tail booms and a central nacelle. The J version received reworked intakes under the engines at the front of the booms, where the oil coolers and the intercoolers are housed; their shape differed from the earlier versions. These intakes are very much on show at the front of the booms and the plastic from the box often simplifies them. A faithful casting with the correct shape lifts the look of the nose of both booms.
First wash the resin parts in lukewarm water with a drop of dish soap because of the mold release residue. Cut the casting blocks off carefully with a saw and sand the surfaces with respiratory protection. Glue the parts with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue). Check the fit against the booms before gluing, and bring the intake openings out with shading for depth.
The accessory is supplied as a resin replacement part, unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and the model are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
