The Eduard 1:72 A-10 Photo-Etched Set for Italeri / Revell is a high-quality accessory designed for precisely enhancing 1/72 scale plastic model kits of the A-10 aircraft. This specialized set, developed by Eduard, significantly boosts the level of detail and realism in models from Italeri and Revell.
Key Product Features
Precision Details: Photo-etched parts offer unparalleled detail, far surpassing their plastic counterparts included in standard model kit sets. They allow for the reproduction of the finest details, such as instrument panels, air intake grilles, seat belts, or small armament components.
Material: Crafted from thin, durable metal, ensuring greater strength, precise reproduction of thin and delicate parts, and ease of forming.
Perfect Fit: This set is engineered for a perfect fit with 1/72 scale A-10 aircraft models from Italeri and Revell, guaranteeing hassle-free installation and an aesthetically pleasing appearance once assembled.
Contents: The package contains sheets of photo-etched parts, as shown in the preview images, allowing for precise verification of the contents.
Application and Assembly
The photo-etched parts offered in this set are designed to replace standard plastic parts of A-10 aircraft models, enriching them with authentic details that are difficult or impossible to replicate with injection molding technology. These often include cockpit details, landing gear bays, control surfaces, or external antennas.
For durable attachment of metal parts, we recommend using specialized cyanoacrylate (CA) glue, which provides a strong and fast-drying bond. Alternatively, for advanced modelers, it's possible to join some parts using a soldering iron, ensuring very solid and precise connections, especially when creating three-dimensional structures.
Compatibility and Further Detailing
This set is dedicated to 1/72 scale A-10 aircraft models from Italeri and Revell. Its use significantly enhances the visual quality of your built model.
To further expand your model's detailing possibilities, we encourage you to explore the wide range of other dedicated modeling accessories available on the market, such as: metal gun barrels (including for the GAU-8 Avenger cannon), resin parts (e.g., pilot seats, wheels, engine details), or advanced decal sets. These additional components will help you create an even more realistic and detailed replica.
