1:32 Douglas A-26C Invader bomb bay is an Eduard photo-etched detailing set for fitting out the bomb bay of the model. It is not a kit but an accessory for raising the level of detail.
Responsibility details are not available.
A detailing set of photo-etched parts intended for finishing the bomb bay on a large model of the A-26 Invader in the C version in 1:32 scale. It is neither a kit nor a model — what you get are frets with parts etched from thin sheet, which are used in the model in place of the simplified plastic parts or to supplement them. The maker is the Czech firm Eduard, which has been producing photo-etched accessories for a long time.
The inside of a bomb bay is usually rendered in simplified form on an injection-molded model: the reinforcement, the brackets, the racks and the small installation do not make it into the mold at all or come out too thick. Photo-etched sheet is an order of magnitude thinner than plastic, so thin-walled features look right in scale. On an open bomb bay, into which you can see on a displayed model, this is the most conspicuous difference between a build straight from the box and a finished model.
Cut the parts off the fret with sharp photo-etch shears or a scalpel on a cutting surface, not by breaking them out. Make the bends in a bender or between two blades so that the edge is sharp and straight. They are glued with superglue, and on visible joints the gel variant has proved itself because it gives more time to position the part. Before painting, degrease the sheet and apply a primer, otherwise the paint holds badly on smooth metal. Working with photo-etched parts calls for patience and tweezers, so the set is rather for more experienced modelers.
The package contains photo-etched parts only, not a model, paints or glue. The set is cut for a particular kit, so check before buying that it matches the model you are building.
