As beautifully

engineered

as Tamiya

armour

can be, it

can always

stand extra

embellishment.

The firm’s

M10/Achilles

will benefit

from this

comprehensive

fiesta of

photo-etched

metal, which

offers tool

clamps,

headlight guard frame, details for the

transmission cover and seats. There

are also mudguards, engine grilles

and tie-down loops for the canvas

cover that was used on the turret.

Even ammunition racks feature.

Give Kinetic’s new SHAR a dash

of style and extra detail with

Eduard’s pre-coloured, self-

adhesive cockpit parts. They’re

highly convincing and provide

a complete set of photo-

etched metal instruments/side

consoles, seatbelts and ejection

seat firing handle.

A pleasing new

addition from

Profimodeller is this

pair of solid rocket

boosters for the MiG-15; although

intended for the MiG-15SB variant,

this resin and photo-etched metal

set could be added to any Fagot sub-

type. Just remove the boosters from

their casting blocks, add the turned

aluminium nozzles and PE mounting

brackets and one’s MiG-15 is ready

for an assisted take-off.

AZ Model’s ‘190s are good kits

but as with any limited-run

offering, extra detail is a must.

Here, one is treated to a full

array of photo-etched metal

cockpit parts (instruments,

seat straps, rudder pedals,

cockpit coaming and behind-the-

seat decking), along with new

undercarriage doors, an engine

face, antennas and canopy

handles. A small printed acetate

sheet provides instrument faces.

Add an extra

portion of

refinement

to Tamiya’s

Enigma

tank with

this neat

set, which

comprises

not just

the engine

grilles, but

other highly

detailed

features that surround them, such as

locking pins and brackets. It’s a small

set but perfectly formed and will

make the world of difference.

Obviously released to accompany

Eduard’s new re-boxing package

of Hasegawa’s Starfighter, this

photo-etched metal upgrade

can, of course, be employed on

the original Hasegawa kits too. It

offers undercarriage bay and leg

details, airbrakes, exhaust inners,

canopy rails/locks, antennas and

other items.

DETAILS

Many armour fans relished

the fact that Tamiya recently

re-released Tasca’s excellent

Firefly. Why not make a real

show-stopper out of it, though,

with Eduard’s photo-etched

brass? This set offers many

tool clamps, a light guard, front

fenders, stowage bins locks, gun

cleaning rod straps and details

for the hatches.
