All models come with black base stands and decal name plates. Model Scale: 1/48 Wingspan: 14 1/2" RS Length: 15 1/2" These beautiful handmade authentic replicas are made from the very finest grade of select kiln-dried Philippine mahogany wood. The replicas are made entirely by hand, from the hand carving of the fuselage, wings and tail section - to the sanding of the aircraft's contours. Every part is assembled precisely into place using the highest quality adhesive available. After shaping and sanding, the model passes through several stages of priming and sanding before it is hand painted to duplicate the actual colors of a selected historical aircraft. Artisans detail from researched reference materials, including all the insignias, squadron badges, nose art, emblems and serial numbers to replicate the original aircraft to scale. Hand-made rockets, missiles, and drop tanks are correctly reproduced to represent real weapon loads for the various aircraft and to give the model an enhanced value. Next, multiple coats of clear lacquer are applied to protect the exquisite artwork and provide an overall glossy finish.
