About product

Photo-etched detail set Flakpanzer IV Wirbelwind in 1:35 scale

This add-on set of photo-etched brass sheet from Voyager Model is prepared for the Dragon 6540 plastic kit. On its own it does not make up a model; it serves to replace and supplement the parts that in plastic are inevitably thicker than in reality.

The real subject

The Flakpanzer IV with the nickname Wirbelwind was built on the chassis of the Panzer IV medium tank. The original turret was replaced by an open multi-sided superstructure with a 2 cm anti-aircraft weapon. The aim of the design was mobile anti-aircraft cover for armored units on the move. The open top of the superstructure matters for a model, because during the build the inside stays visible and thin metal walls and mount details show there most of all.

Bending photo-etched parts and the tools for it

Most photo-etched parts have to be bent exactly on the marked groove. A small modeling bending tool serves best, and at a pinch the edge of a steel ruler with the flat blade of a scalpel as the press. Bend in short strokes along the whole length rather than with one levering movement at the edge, otherwise the edge will ripple. Bend longer parts before you take them off the fret, if the position of the tabs allows it. Try multiple bends dry first on an offcut of the border sheet.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of German armor in 1:35 scale
  • Modelers who want to take the interior detail of an open superstructure further
  • Advanced builders with experience of bending photo-etched sheet
  • Competition modelers judged on the scale thickness of the parts

This is an add-on set for a plastic kit, not a standalone model. The kit, glue, paints and tools are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

No. The set holds photo-etched metal parts only. The plastic kit has to be obtained separately.

Photo-etched parts call for a steady hand, a sharp tool and patience. For a first build it is better to start with a simpler set.

A modeling bending tool is ideal. Without one a steel ruler with a sharp edge and the flat blade of a scalpel as the press will serve.

Yes. Degrease it with alcohol and use a primer for metal, otherwise the paint does not hold on the smooth surface and rubs off.

For the Dragon 6540 kit. That is bought separately.
