The quality of the resin casting is
flawless and bubble free. This is 1/72 so this set is tiny but it is
packed with all the wonderful detail we would expect in a 1/48 cockpit
set. Compared to the kit cockpit, this is a pleasant improvement in detail
and you will be quite impressed with the finished cockpit once it is installed
in your 109. You will be required to cut the one piece kit cockpit into 3
parts to show off all the wonderful detail in this cockpit set.
Aires has captured all the detail
beautifully in this cockpit set and this will be a lovely addition to the
Finemolds Bf 109G-2 kit.
You can purchase this and other
fine resin detail items directly from Aires
or from the many retailers that carry their products.
I would like to
thank Aires for
providing me with this review sample.
