FirstLook

 

Eduard has released a "LooK" set for their brand new 1/48 scale F4F-3 Wildcat kit.

The set comprises the instrument panels in 3D printed resin with printed dials, bezels, switches, knobs and more. Printing on my sample is in register.

 

 

The lenses of the instruments are finished in a glassy, glossy finish too, although it is hard to appreciate in the photos.

In addition to the single coloured resin panel, Eduard has also supplied the bulkhead / instrument panel in grey 3D printed resin.

 

 

As a nice bonus, this set also includes Eduard STEEL harness straps.

 

 

These are more flexible than the standard Eduard photo-etched straps, and they also feature subtle half tones.

 

 

Instructions are included in the package.

 

 

Conclusion

 

Installing this LooK set will result in a busy and detailed appearance in your Eduard 1/48 scale Wildcat - the choice is yours!

This set will also be ideal for adding more detail to Eduard's bare bones Overtrees boxing with the plastic sprues only.

This is another nice option to have..

Thanks to Eduard for the review samples
