About product

Vickers Wellington Mk.IC 1:48 (Trumpeter)

An injection-molded plastic kit of the British twin-engine bomber Vickers Wellington Mk.IC in 1:48 scale from Trumpeter. It is a large model with finely engraved surfaces, complemented by clear plastic, photo-etched metal, decals and rubber tires. The kit offers a richly divided interior, a well worked out bomb bay and detailed engines, and it belongs among the true giants of a shelf.

The real subject

The Vickers Wellington was a British twin-engine medium bomber of the Second World War. It became famous for its geodetic fuselage structure covered with fabric, which was exceptionally resistant to battle damage. The Mk.IC version was one of the most widespread early variants and formed the backbone of British bomber aviation in the first years of the war, when Wellingtons operated mostly at night over occupied Europe.

Building and painting tips

Work in subassemblies and use a thin cement for plastic; bond the photo-etched and clear parts with super glue. Finish and paint the rich interior and the bomb bay before the fuselage is closed, because they are clearly visible through the glazed windows. Apply a primer before painting and lay the colors on with an airbrush. You will appreciate the detailed engines with the cowlings open, and fit the metal landing gear carefully according to the instructions.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of British bomber aviation of the Second World War in 1:48 scale
  • More experienced modelers who want to enjoy building a large bomber
  • Enthusiasts of the geodetic structure and of the night raids of the Royal Air Force
  • Modelers who will appreciate a full interior and an open bomb bay

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

Yes, the kit offers a richly divided interior and a well worked out bomb bay. It pays to finish and paint them before the fuselage is closed, because they are clearly visible through the glazed windows.

Given its size, its complexity and the photo-etch, it is recommended rather to more experienced modelers. It is a large and time-consuming project.
