This EDUARD photo-etched set is designed for advanced detailing of 1/72 scale plastic model aircraft. It serves as a precise complement and enhancement for the de Havilland Mosquito Mk.VI model, especially dedicated to kits produced by Tamiya.
The set contains high-quality, precisely manufactured metal parts designed to replace or complement details molded in plastic. Their use significantly increases the level of realism and detail of the model, replicating fine elements such as cockpit seatbelts, air intake grilles, small flaps, or landing gear components, with an accuracy impossible to achieve with standard model production methods.
Key Features and Application
High Detail: Photo-etched parts are characterized by extremely fine and sharp details that faithfully replicate the actual appearance of aircraft components.
Enhanced Realism: They significantly improve the aesthetics and authenticity of the model, giving it a more professional appearance.
Precision Engineering: Perfect fit for the indicated model ensures easy assembly and flawless results.
Durable Material: Made of metal, ensuring greater strength compared to delicate plastic counterparts.
Compatibility and Assembly
The set is designed specifically for the 1/72 scale Tamiya de Havilland Mosquito Mk.VI model, ensuring a perfect fit and ease of integration with existing kit components.
For durable attachment of the metal photo-etched parts, cyanoacrylate (CA) glue is recommended, as it provides a strong and fast bond. Alternatively, for advanced modelers, these parts can be joined using soldering, which guarantees exceptional joint strength.
Enhancing Detail
For modelers looking to further enhance their project, a wide range of additional detailing parts is available. These include, among others: precise metal gun barrels, individual track link sets (for armored vehicle models), metal tow cables, and specialized figures. It is worth considering their use to achieve a comprehensive and realistic final result.
