Tamiya 1/48 aircraft kits are designed for intermediate to advanced modelers. Begin by carefully removing parts from sprues and test-fitting before gluing. Use Tamiya Extra Thin Cement for invisible seams on the excellent-fitting parts. Paint cockpits and wheel wells before assembly for easier access. Follow the comprehensive instruction manual's painting guides, which reference Tamiya paint colors. Apply decals over gloss-coated surfaces using Tamiya Mark Fit solutions for perfect adhesion. Finish with your choice of flat, semi-gloss, or gloss clear coat depending on the aircraft's operational finish. The superior engineering of these kits rewards careful assembly with stunning, accurate models worthy of any collection.
