This pre-painted
photo
etch detail set from
Eduard is part
of the Zoom series of photo etch sets and is available directly from
Eduard
Model Accessories. This
set contains 2 photo etch frets with 1 being pre-painted. This is mostly a cockpit detail set designed for the
1/48 Kinetic F-104G Late.
The parts include some pre-painted parts for the instrument panel, cockpit
placards etc.
You also get a few parts for landing gear and wheel wells including piping
and canopy mirrors, rudder pedals etc.
There are pages of instruction in the usual line
drawing format that Eduard is famous for and which are so easy to follow. You will be required to cut away detail on the kit parts to fit these photo
etched parts, but this is indicated on the instruction sheets.
You will be
required to fold the photoetch in this set, but if you have one of the
Hold & Fold photo etch benders from The
Small Shop, then this will be an
easy process. They have a variety of benders for sharp corners as
well as rounded corners and in many different sizes.
This pre-painted photo etch set will greatly enhance the fine detail of the Late F-104Gcockpit including the instrument panel and side consoles. The ejection seat and landing gear will get stickers in the form of pre-painted photo etch. It's a very good set, but does not include seat belts. You can buy this pre-painted photo etch detail set and thousands of other items directly from Eduard Model Accessories. Steve Bamford |
