1:48 Scale

1:48 Scale – The Sweet Spot in Aviation Modeling

1:48 scale is one of the most popular scales in modeling, particularly for aircraft. It is often considered the ideal compromise between size and detail. The "1:48" designation indicates that the model is 48 times smaller than its real-life counterpart. As a result, aircraft models in this scale are large enough to accurately replicate details like cockpit interiors, armament, or panel riveting, yet manageable enough not to take up excessive space. This makes them an excellent choice for both beginners looking to build an impressive model and for advanced modelers who value the opportunity for super-detailing and adding custom details. The scale's popularity also ensures a wide availability of aftermarket sets, such as photo-etched parts, resin accessories, and decals, enabling an even higher level of refinement for your miniature.
