Eduard
Czech company Eduard produces high-quality styrene kits, cast and 3D-printed resin accessories, photo-etched metal details and standard/3D decals. The kits come in ProfiPACK and Dual Combo limited-edition forms, as well as standard and Weekend Edition versions. ProfiPACK and Dual Combo items come with extra accessories and tape masks. Highlights from this firm are its 1/48 P-51D Mustang and MiG-21 series kits.
REICH DEFENCE MESSERSCHMITT
Eduard's splendid 1/48 Bf 109 parts are now available in Weekend Edition format to represent a G-10 'Erla' aircraft, with four fresh colour schemes.
TIGER MOTH TRIMMINGS
ICM’s newly tooled 1/32 Tiger Moth has been well-received, but those seeking additional detail will find Eduard’s photo-etched steel fret a boon.
ALL STRAPPED IN
If there’s one aspect of a cockpit that is challenging to replicate via injection moulded styrene, it’s the seatbelts/harnesses.
EAGLE BF 109 SCHEMES
Whether this set is used as an alternative for Eduard’s 1/48 Adlerangriff Bf 109 boxing or just the firm’s standard Bf 109E- 3 and -4 offerings, the result will be five eye-catching liveries as worn by these Luftwaffe fighters during and after the Battle of Britain.
