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.
Here is Eduard's surface panel set for the Eduard 1/48 Spitfire Mk.VIII kit. This set provides templates which assist in removing molded surface doors, filler caps, and access panels with photo-etched replacement panels and (in some cases) frames. This set also provides a replacement pilot entry door complete with replica latching system
If you want to enhance the surface detailing on the Eduard Spitfire Mk.VIII kit, here is the thorough toolbox for getting that job done!
My sincere thanks to Eduard for this review sample!
