Do 217N-1 exhaust for ICM, 1/48 - Quickboost QB48 955

Quickboost QB48 955 is a detailing accessory for the Dornier Do 217N-1 model by ICM in 1/48. This reference offers exhaust parts designed to replace the corresponding pieces from the plastic kit.

Made from resin, this set is aimed at modelers who want to refine the depiction of the exhaust area on their Do 217N-1. Resin parts require careful preparation before assembly: careful removal from their sprues, cleaning, dry-fitting, and gluing with a glue suitable for resin.

At 1/48 scale, the Dornier Do 217N-1 is reproduced forty-eight times smaller than the real aircraft. The Do 217N-1 belonged to the family of Dornier twin-engine aircraft operated by the Luftwaffe during World War II; the N-1 version was dedicated to night fighting.

Assembly and finishing

Light deburring and dry-fitting help you check the fit before gluing. After priming, the exhausts can be painted and then weathered using metallic shades, darkened or blackened tones to reproduce the usual effects of heat and soot on an aircraft in service.

For installation, plan in particular to use cyanoacrylate glue or an adhesive compatible with resin, as well as fine cutting and sanding tools.
