The Hauler Type 95 Kurogane 1:48 photo-etched set completes the metal detail of the Japanese cross-country car. It is cut for the Hasegawa kit and is not itself a model.
Responsibility details are not available.
An aftermarket set made of photo-etched sheet from the Czech maker Hauler in 1:48 scale. It completes and replaces the detail of the Japanese Type 95 Kurogane cross-country car on the Hasegawa plastic kit. Note that the manufacturer offers sets for this vehicle for different base kits, so when buying you have to pick the variant matching your box. The set itself is not a model and cannot be built without a kit.
The Type 95 Kurogane was among the first series-produced cross-country cars with all-wheel drive. The Japanese army took it into service in the second half of the 1930s and used it for reconnaissance, signals and carrying commanders. The design relied on simplicity and low weight, and an air-cooled twin-cylinder engine provided the power. The car was built in open and in closed forms.
For photo-etch it is worth getting a few things ready in advance. The basis is a hard glass or steel surface, a new scalpel or special photo-etch shears, pointed tweezers and a simple bender, which can be replaced by two razor blades and a steel ruler. Always run the bend along the etched groove and finish it with a finger rather than with pliers. Degrease the metal with alcohol or isopropyl alcohol before gluing, and use super glue applied on the tip of a piece of wire. Take the excess off at once; once dry it leaves a white film. Paint does not hold on bare metal, so always a primer, ideally sprayed in a thin coat.
This is an accessory for a build, not a model in its own right. The kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.
