About product

A standing airman for a Corsair II model in 1:48 scale

The set brings a pilot figure in flying kit, caught standing outside the cockpit. The name gives the Greek variant and the sequence designation type 3, which is how the stance and the turn of the body differ from the other poses in the same line. The figure suits a model standing on an airfield apron, a scene with ground crew, or it can serve as a scale reference beside the airframe.

The real subject

The Vought A-7 Corsair II was a subsonic attack aircraft, derived in shape from the F-8 Crusader fighter. It entered service in the second half of the 1960s, carried a heavy bomb load and became known for the accuracy of its navigation and targeting equipment. The Greek Air Force operated Corsair IIs for several decades and was among their last European users, which makes this subject a rewarding alternative to the usual American color schemes.

Painting and placing

Separate the figure from the casting block carefully, roughen the contact areas and match the height of the feet to the surface so it stands on its whole sole. Build the face up step by step, from the base flesh tone toward glazes and shadows, and bring out the flight suit with a dry brush on the edges of the folds. Set the straps, the helmet and the gloves apart with a contrasting shade. A matte clear coat at the end unifies the surface and hides the transitions between layers.

Who it suits

  • builders of aircraft in 1:48 who want to add a size comparison
  • makers of airfield scenes and air bases
  • anyone interested in the Greek Air Force of the Cold War
  • modelers who enjoy painting figures
  • display cases where the model stands without a crew

This is an accessory for a model; the aircraft itself is sold separately.

FAQ

It is not. The item offered is a figure accessory; the A-7 Corsair II kit is bought separately.

The designation distinguishes the individual poses within the line. Type 3 has a different turn of the body and arms than the lower-numbered variants, so several figures can be placed side by side without repeating a gesture.

A standing figure is not tied to a particular cockpit, so it can be placed beside any model in the same scale. I would only check the height against the surface and level the feet if needed.

Before painting, wash the figure in lukewarm water with a drop of detergent and let it dry thoroughly. The surface will then take the base layer better.
