First Look
Eduard from the Czech Republic is easily the most prolific producer of aftermarket details. Period. Their series of photo-etched detail sets have brought additional fidelity to otherwise bland subjects, and have taken even the best-produced models and kicked them up a notch or two with details that cannot be produced with injection-molded plastic.
In this release, Eduard has produced a fret of details for the inside of the F-4J's two underwing speed brakes. This set provides the structural lining of the wing speed brake well as well as the interior of the pedals themselves. This set will enhance the nice Academy kit and provide some eye-catching details in the process.
Recommended for experienced modelers!
My sincere thanks to Eduard for this review sample!
