FirstLook

 

Eduard has released several upgrade sets for the recent Airfix 1/72 scale Mosquito PR.XVI.

 

SS803 - ZOOM PR.XVI for Airfix kit

This is Eduard's ZOOM photo-etched fret for the Airfix 1/72 scale Mosquito PR.XVI, comprising one pre-coloured fret.

 

 

This contains detail parts for the cockpit, including two sets of harness straps for the pilot and the navigator.

The colour fret also offers the instrument panel, switches, radios, panels and smaller details.

Wheel masks are supplied for the tail wheel but not the main wheels.

Instructions are included.


 

CX649 - MASK Mosquito PR.XVI for Airfix kit

These are die-cut, self-adhesive imasks for the outside of the Airfix 1/72 scale Mosquito PR.XVI canopy. 

 

 

Instructions are provided. 

 

 

These represent a fast and accurate solution for a time consuming and often disliked modelling task. 

 

 

Conclusion

 

The ZOOM photo-etched set will add an extra dimension of detail to the cockpit of your Airfix 1/72 scale Mosquito PR.XVI economically and with a minimum of effort. The masks will make short work of an often disliked task.

Thanks to Eduard for the review samples
