Contents I traded this kit for a copy of a German aviation magazine and I must say I made a good trade. It is probably the best vacform I have ever seen. The kit comes in a bag and consists of:
The kit is extremely well done. Surface detail is engraved and is neatly done, the parts them selves are also very crisp and the plastic is not too thin or too brittle and all corners and edges are very sharp and not rounded like on so many other vacforms. The only criticism is that some of the engraved lines have little "bubbles" in them and these bubbles will need to be cleaned out with a scribing tool. The vacform canopy is also a bit hazy but a touch of Future should fix that. Once this kit has been assembled, the engravings scribed clean and the canopy has been dunked in Future a couple of times the result will beat any PZL P.24 or P.11 injection moulded kit I have ever seen. Come to think of it if one lavishes enough work on it this kit could easily outshine a Hasegawa or Fujimi model especially in so far as surface detail is concerned even if one keeps most of the original surface detail. The only real headache is that if one wants to build a cannon armed P.24 one has to vacform the cannon bulges from scratch. |
