Tiger Head Models 1:48 P-47 D Razorback – equipment for sea-air rescue is a set of 3D-printed parts with which you give a finished fighter model a less usual role. It is not a kit of the aircraft.
Responsibility details are not available.
A set of 3D-printed parts from the Tiger Head Models brand for models of the P-47 D fighter in the version with a raised fuselage spine in 1:48 scale. The package does not hold a model of the aircraft; it is an accessory for a finished kit that lets you build a machine equipped for search and rescue service over the sea.
The P-47 D in the form with a full fuselage spine is an early shape of the well-known American fighter with a radial engine and a massive structure. The cockpit is set into the fuselage and the canopy joins the dorsal decking, so the silhouette differs markedly from the later machines with a teardrop canopy. Besides fighter and attack tasks, machines of this class also found use in searching for crews shot down over the sea. An aircraft with a long range could find survivors quickly and drop them equipment that helped them last until a rescue vessel arrived. It is exactly this less known side of their use that the set opens up to modelers.
Parts from 3D printing tend to have very fine detail, but also thin supports and a fine layering of the surface. Remove the supports one at a time with a sharp cutter and never break them off; work with the parts at room temperature, because the material is more brittle in the cold. It is enough to smooth the surface with very fine sanding paper, sand it wet and protect your airways. Wash and degrease the parts before painting, then apply a thin primer; without one, paint holds poorly on printed resin. It is glued with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue). Fit the accessories onto a finished and varnished model, so that the fine detail is not flooded with paint.
The accessory is supplied unpainted and without the base model. Glue, paints and a kit are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
