This Contact Resine cockpit set
from Design &
Marketing Int'l is for the Trumpeter Fw-190 D-9. This set contains 6
cream coloured resin pieces, a Photo etch sheet (with 25 pieces), clear acetate
sheet for the instrument panel and a sheet of instrument gauge decals.
The resin casting is first
rate....the detail level plus the combination of the other items such as the
decals and photo etch parts really makes this set a very complete combination of
multi-media parts.
The instrument panel is
interesting in design. The instrument decals go behind the clear
acetate....which attaches to the front of the resin instrument panel. On
top of this goes the photo etch instrument panel with raised bezels after the
painting is complete. This set up will permit you to paint the instrument
bezels easily....the clear acetate will give you the look of glass.
The lower instrument panel has
smaller gauges, which are decals attached to photo etch instrument gauges and
these are attached to the lower resin instrument gauge. A very simple and
easy to install design that will give superior results to the Trumpeter kit
parts.
The set also includes photo etch
seatbelts, rudder pedals with boot straps.
It's hard for me
to stress how creative this set is.....with the decals for the gauges on
the instrument panel as well as the gauge with the decal on the side
console....the detail level is quite remarkable. This picture to the
left begins to give you an idea what this set will look like when
installed. This is a great set and you will definitely improve the
detail level in the 1/24 Trumpeter Fw-190 D-9. |
