Two resin M-118 GP bombs in 1:72 scale from Reskit, made by 3D printing, as an external stores accessory for models of American combat aircraft.
Responsibility details are not available.
A resin accessory for building up the external stores in 1:72 scale. According to the product name the package contains two pieces of the M-118 GP bomb made by 3D printing. This way of production allows the fins and the suspension lugs to be rendered finely, and in a small scale these are among the hardest details. Reskit also lists the same item in 1:48 and 1:32 scale.
The M-118 is an American heavy bomb from the general purpose category, used in the second half of the twentieth century. It was carried mainly by American tactical aircraft of that period, which is why it suits models of machines such as the F-105 Thunderchief, the F-100 Super Sabre or the F-4 Phantom II - with sister items of this range in other scales the manufacturer names exactly these types in the product name. For a modeler a bomb is above all an element of configuration: the external stores decide how the model will look and what mission it represents.
Wash the printed parts in lukewarm soapy water, cut the supports off with a fine saw and sand the areas down; protect your airways when sanding. They are glued with super glue, ideally only once painting is done, so the area around the pylons does not have to be masked. Apply a primer before painting. Bombs are usually painted in a uniform shade with colored bands at the nose and on the body; at this scale the bands are easier to do with a decal or a narrow mask than with a brush. A restrained wash brings out the outline of the fins.
