1:72 Kamov Ka-52 - Big Exterior Set (for Dream Model Kits)

Ka-52 Big Exterior Set - exterior detail set from Quinta Studio, 1:72 scale

A set of exterior details from Quinta Studio for a model of the Kamov Ka-52 attack helicopter in 1:72 scale. It is neither a model nor a kit - it is an accessory that refines and sharpens the outer surface of an already built model. The set is intended for the Ka-52 kit from Dream Model and combines fine 3D printed parts with color 3D decals that replace or complete the simplified details from the box. The exact contents and the number of parts are not stated here - the binding source is the instruction sheet enclosed in the package.

The real subject

The Kamov Ka-52 Alligator is a Russian two-seat attack helicopter with its distinctive coaxial pair of contra-rotating rotors, so it has no tail rotor. The crew seats are arranged side by side, and the machine carries cockpit armor, sensors and armament for the support of ground forces. The coaxial arrangement gives the helicopter agility and a compact outline, which makes it an attractive and unusual subject even in the small 1:72 scale.

Use and tips

• The set serves to dress up the exterior - not to build the whole helicopter.
• The 3D printed parts are fragile: separate them carefully, clean them up and glue them with cyanoacrylate.
• Apply the color 3D decals onto a smooth base; do not use a decal softener, as it attacks the printed resin.
• Before ordering, make sure you are building the matching Dream Model kit in 1:72 scale.

Who the set is for

For modelers who are building the Ka-52 in 1:72 scale and want to lift the exterior detail above the level of the boxed kit.

The accessory is supplied separately. The basic model, paints and glue are not included in the package.
