The bombardier's compartment in the glazed nose of the B-25J Mitchell in 1:48 scale is a resin 3D print from the Czech brand Art Scale Kit for the HK Models kit, as the packaging states. It is an accessory, so you need the base kit of your own.
Responsibility details are not available.
A detail accessory from the Czech brand Art Scale Kit, which has been producing under its own mark since 2019. The set equips the bombardier's compartment in the glazed nose of the B-25J Mitchell bomber in 1:48 scale, and the manufacturer designates it on the packaging for the HK Models kit. It is an accessory for the build, not an airplane model.
The B-25J was produced with two nose arrangements. The glazed one, known as the glass nose, carried the bombardier's station with the Norden bombsight and was intended for classic bombing from altitude; beside it stood the solid version with fixed machine guns for attacks from low level. The glazing means that the whole compartment is visible from the outside on the finished model, and that is exactly where a simplified plastic interior gives itself away first.
Resin prints cut, sand and drill well, they are glued with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue) and painted with ordinary modeling paints. The manufacturer recommends dipping the parts in hot water before the supports are cut off: the material softens and there is no risk of chipping, and the hardness returns once it has cooled. Spray a primer before painting. Sand with respiratory protection. Paint the interior of the nose and fit it before you close and glaze the nose; once glued, you will not reach it. Light shines through the glazing, so it pays to emphasize the edges and the shadows more than would seem necessary.
It is a detail accessory. The base B-25J Mitchell kit from HK Models, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
