Red Fox Studio 1/48 F/A-18F Super Hornet 3D Panel

Give your Meng 1/48 Boeing F/A-18F Super Hornet cockpit greater depth and definition with this Quick Set 3D instrument panel from Red Fox Studio. Reference RFSQS-48088 is a coloured resin upgrade created to enhance the kit cockpit with precisely rendered instruments, displays, controls and raised panel features.

The three-dimensional construction creates a more convincing surface than a flat instrument panel. Individual details are clearly defined, helping the cockpit become a stronger focal point within the completed aircraft. Its coloured finish also provides an excellent starting point for installation, reducing the amount of intricate painting required to distinguish the numerous controls.

Created for the Meng Super Hornet

This 1/48 scale accessory is recommended for the Meng F/A-18F Super Hornet kit. It provides a focused upgrade for this highly visible cockpit area while complementing the surrounding kit components. The precisely formed details make it suitable for modellers seeking additional depth without having to recreate each instrument face and control individually.

The resin material is minimally flexible, allowing careful adjustment while the panel is positioned. It can also be gently sanded to refine the fit where required. Test the component inside the cockpit before applying adhesive, then make any small adjustments needed to achieve accurate placement.

Straightforward Installation and Customisation

Installation can be completed using cyanoacrylate or PVA model glue. Separate the component from its support, confirm its alignment and apply the selected adhesive carefully before securing it within the cockpit. This accessible fitting process makes the upgrade suitable for both newer and experienced aircraft modellers.

The coloured surface can be further customised with oil-based or acrylic paints. Carefully applied shading, washes and highlights can help coordinate the panel with the surrounding cockpit finish while emphasising selected raised features. Explore the acrylic paints range for additional finishing options.
