The photo-etched set 1:48 B-24D Liberator exterior from the Czech maker Eduard targets the outer surface of a model of the four-engine bomber, where it replaces coarser plastic detail with thin metal.
Responsibility details are not available.
This is not a kit but a metal accessory for a model of the B-24D Liberator bomber in 1:48 scale. According to the name it is aimed at the exterior detail of the airframe, that is the parts visible on a finished model without opening anything. Photo-etched sheet has a thickness that cannot be produced by injection molding into plastic, and that is exactly what shows most on exterior elements.
A full set, not a smaller Zoom
Eduard distinguishes the more extensive full photo-etched sets from the smaller pre-painted sets of the Zoom range. This is a full set. Check the extent of the package and the number of parts on the box.
The Consolidated B-24D Liberator is an American four-engine bomber from the period of the Second World War. You can recognize it by the slender wing mounted high on the fuselage, the twin vertical tails and the four radial engines. The outer surface is busy, so fine metal parts come into their own on it.
Separate the parts with a sharp scalpel or etch scissors on a hard surface and never break them out by twisting. Make the bends over the edge of a bending tool or over a razor blade, so that they are sharp and straight. They are bonded with super glue applied in a truly small amount, and on larger areas a two-part epoxy helps, as it gives time to seat the part. Degrease unpainted metal before painting and go over it with a primer, otherwise the paint holds poorly and flakes off during handling.
The set is an accessory to a kit, not a standalone model. The kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
