An add-on set of photo-etched brass parts from Voyager Model, cut for the Bronco 35010 plastic kit. It is not a kit and not a model. The set is aimed at the fenders above the running gear, that is at a part visible both in profile and from above and one that always comes out unnaturally thick in plastic.
The Comet A34 was a British cruiser tank from the end of the Second World War, armed with a 77 mm gun. It was derived from the preceding type but had a reworked turret and better armor. The fenders above the tracks on British vehicles were sectioned sheet-metal panels, which in service were often bent, worked loose or lost altogether.
A fender is a long narrow part and flatness is everything on it: the slightest ripple shows at first glance from the side of the model. Cut the parts off with a scalpel against a hard surface, file the remains of the tabs flush with the part lying flat, and at no stage hold them with tweezers in the middle. Start gluing at one end and work along in sections so that the part does not lift. Metal has one great advantage over plastic: a bent corner, a dent or a missing section can be made for real rather than merely suggested. Do the bending only after the neighboring parts are glued on, though, otherwise the fit is lost.
The set is an accessory for a plastic kit and does not make up a model on its own. The kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.
