About product

Handley Page Hampden B.Mk.II (1:72, Valom)

Short-run plastic kit of the British bomber Handley Page Hampden in the B.Mk.II version in 1:72 scale from the Czech brand Valom. The box usually contains gray injection-molded parts, clear glazing, resin castings, a photo-etched fret and a decal sheet. It is a multimedia short-run kit for more advanced modelers.

The real subject

The Handley Page Hampden was a British twin-engine medium bomber of the early Second World War, notable for its narrow fuselage and long tail boom, which earned it the nickname Flying Suitcase. The B.Mk.II version differed from the standard form in its powerplant - instead of British Bristol Pegasus radial engines it received American Wright Cyclone radials. It was a small, largely experimental and transitional series; otherwise the type served above all with British Bomber Command and on patrol and torpedo duties.

Building and painting tips

With a multimedia short-run kit, dry-fit the parts and clean up the gates. Wash the mold release agent off the resin parts and glue them with cyanoacrylate glue, as with the photo-etched fret. The extensive fuselage glazing calls for patient masking. Lay down a primer before painting; the British Bomber Command schemes will show best with an airbrush and soft transitions.

Who the model is for

  • Advanced modelers used to resin and photo-etched parts
  • Collectors of British Bomber Command
  • Anyone interested in the less common engine version of the Hampden
  • Builders of multi-engine subjects

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

FAQ

Instead of British Bristol Pegasus radial engines it had American Wright Cyclone radials; it was a small, largely transitional series.

Rather not. It is a short-run multimedia kit from Valom with resin and photo-etched parts, which calls for experience and careful masking of the glazing.

Yes, it is a multimedia kit. Glue the resin and the photo-etched parts with cyanoacrylate, and wash the mold release agent off the resin first.
