1/48 B-25J Mitchell Glazed Nose - HK Models

The B-25, built in honor of General Billy Mitchell, was one of the most famous twin-engine American bombers of World War II. By the end of its production, more than L0,000 B-25s had been produced in various designs. An extensive in.formation can now be obtained via the internet, so we don't want to bore our patrons with a brief historical-literary description. Let's get straight to the construction of this model, one of the best finished B-25s we could ever offer.

The instructions were written on the recommendation of an experienced modeler. We understand that although there are one or two logical build sequences, each modeler interprets the build and paint sequence in his or her own way. Therefore, we strongly recommend that each proud owner of this giant kit thoroughly study the instructions and then follow their own methods and sequence of building and painting the model Like many 1 scale plastic kits:1 on the market, this kit is built on sub-assemblies. This is the best way to make assembly and painting as easy as possible. Because the kit has tried to represent the position of the undercarriage below as accurately as possible, you must follow the instructions when installing the undercarriage struts. Finally, we must recommend that you be very careful when using sharp tools such as modeling knives, drills and cutters. Photo stickers are included, so also be very careful when using superglue. If used incorrectly it has a tendency to glue fingers together.. should this happen, do not attempt to pry fingers apart with brute force. Use an ungluer from the superglue family to dissolve the glue, or simply let the figures stick together briefly and they should separate using the metabolism of human skin. There are many model paints on the market, but as we are an environmentally minded brand, we recommend using acrylic paints, paints that are water-based and least damaging to the environment. This is a c,omplex kit and will give you hours and hours of fun. Still, this kit is intended for ages 14 and up and contains many small and sharp parts, so keep it out of the reach of children.
