About product

Eduard Brassin 1:72 Spitfire Mk.VIII top cowl

This resin part from Eduard replaces the top engine cowling, cast in one piece, for Spitfire Mk.VIII models in 1:72 scale. The resin casting captures the shape and surface detail of the cowling more accurately than injected plastic, and there is no gluing together of several parts. It is not an airplane model but an aftermarket accessory that sharpens one particular section of a kit.

The real subject

The Supermarine Spitfire Mk.VIII was an improved version of the British fighter with a strengthened structure and a Rolls-Royce Merlin engine, used above all in overseas theaters. The shape of the top engine cowling is characteristic for recognizing the version, which is why it is worth concentrating on.

Usage tips

Wash the mold release residue off the casting and carefully separate it from the casting block. It is bonded with super glue (cyanoacrylate). Try the joint with the plastic fuselage dry and, if needed, sand it gently with your breathing protected. Degrease the surface before spraying paint.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of Spitfire Mk.VIII models who want a more accurate cowling shape
  • Modelers in 1:72 scale interested in fine detail
  • More advanced modelers working with resin

The set is an accessory, not a model. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

No. It is a resin replacement for the top engine cowling for Spitfire Mk.VIII models in 1:72 scale.

It is cast in one piece with a more faithful shape and a finer surface, so there is no gluing and filling of several plastic parts.

Super glue (cyanoacrylate); ordinary plastic cement does not hold on resin.
