A plastic kit of the Junkers F.13 with skis (early production) in 1:48 scale from the manufacturer Miniart. The world's first all-metal airliner in its winter form on skis, with a rich interior and photo-etched parts.
Responsibility details are not available.
This injection-molded plastic kit in 1:48 scale from the manufacturer Miniart captures the pioneering all-metal airliner Junkers F.13 in the early production form, equipped with winter ski landing gear for landing on snow. The kit is worked out in detail: it contains a full interior, finely reproduced corrugated duralumin skin, photo-etched and clear parts and opening covers. Decals for three color variants tend to be in the package. It is a modern, more demanding kit that rewards patient modelers.
The Junkers F.13, introduced in 1919, was the world's first all-metal airliner and the first machine designed exclusively for commercial carriage of passengers. It marked the transition from wood-and-fabric biplanes to all-metal cantilever low-wing monoplanes. The characteristic corrugated duralumin skin became the hallmark of Junkers aircraft for decades. Thanks to the ski landing gear the F.13 served in snowbound and remote regions as well, for example in Scandinavia and in the Soviet Union.
Finish and paint the interior before closing the fuselage — once it is put together there will be no access to it. Bond the photo-etched parts with super glue. Paint the corrugated skin so that the structure comes out — a thin wash into the recesses and fine dry brushing of the ridges will help. Apply a primer and paint with an airbrush; bring the metal surfaces to life with shades of aluminum. Fit the ski landing gear last and add a suggestion of snow or weathered paint.
The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
