E-Resin has followed on from their Mirage III correction and detail sets with these superb detail sets for the Kinetic 1/32 Scale BAE Systems Hawk 100 Series. The resin is nicely moulded with no air bubbles and the detail is crisp and accurate.

I compared these parts to the real items today and I can validate the accuracy. Nothing is missing.

 

1/32 CBLS 200 Practice Bomb Dispensers with BDU-33 Bombs

 

 

The detail in this set has to be seen to be believed. The CBLS 200 are spot on. Two CBLS are supplied with four smoke bombs for each. The bombs come in two sections the body and tail fins. The bombs have been moulded with the fuse cap not fitted and this is how they are installed to the aircraft with the fuse screwed in after fitment, Easy to fit a bit of rod and cap but difficult to mould.



1/32 Scale Inboard and Outboard Pylons

 

 

The Kinetic kit does not come with pylons so this is a welcome addition. Accurately moulded with the switching bulge on the side in the correct position and side for the inboard and outboard pylons. The stores sway braces are separately moulded and are very delicate so care is needed when cleaning these up.


1/32 Scale Aden 30mm Gun Pod

 

 

There are a few resin items available already of this pod as well as the Revell kit item, but none of them have the detail that E-Resin has included in this item. Every vent, screen and intricate muzzle detail is there. It is like the real item just got reduced. The photographs of this item say it all.

 

C o n c l u s i o n

 

I do not know how Eric at E-Resin gets the level of detail into the masters that he creates, almost makes me want to give up scratch building, from a small enterprise after market manufacturer, just brilliant. I cannot wait to see what comes next.

ericgalliers@hotmail.com for orders.

Thanks to E-Resin for the review samples.
