Photo-etched armor plates for the Sd.Kfz. 250 in the late configuration, 1:35 scale, are an extensive Voyager Model add-on set for a kit of the half-track carrier you already own: it is not a model but brass parts for the hull. Cut for the Dragon kit.
Responsibility details are not available.
An extensive photo-etched add-on set from Voyager Model meant for a model of the Sd.Kfz. 250 light half-track armored personnel carrier in the late configuration that you already own. It is not a kit of the vehicle: these are brass armor plates and the related details, which replace the coarser plastic surfaces and supplement them with features that cannot be made by injection molding. The set is cut for the Dragon kit.
The Sd.Kfz. 250 was a German light half-track armored personnel carrier of the Second World War. It served as a reconnaissance, signals and command vehicle and a whole range of purpose-built modifications grew out of it. From 1943 a simplified late version was built, in the period designation neu: the hull box received fewer faceted surfaces, which made welding faster and cheaper. The difference between the early and the late hull is apparent on a model at first glance, which is why add-on sets are always tied to one of the two variants.
The key skill with this set is accurate bending. Long straight edges are best broken in a bender for photo-etched parts; without one, help yourself with two steel rulers and bend the edge along the whole length at once rather than in sections. The etched groove on a part shows where the bend belongs, and it faces inwards while bending. Bend smoothly and without repeated straightening, because brass cracks when it is folded back and forth. Fix a seated part first with a drop of cyanoacrylate in a corner, check the squareness against a square and only then glue the joint along its length. Degrease the whole thing before painting and lay on a thin coat of base; covering paint holds considerably worse on bare brass.
The set is unassembled and unpainted. The package does not hold the kit of the vehicle, the glue or the paints, unless stated otherwise.
