About product

Eduard Zoom photo-etched parts for the F-104G late in 1:48 scale

A color-printed set of photo-etched parts from the Zoom line of the Czech maker Eduard, intended for a model of the F-104G in its late version in 1:48 scale. The Zoom line concentrates on the most visible places on a model — above all the cockpit: a printed instrument panel and small interior details take on a form that is very hard to achieve with a brush. It is not an airplane kit, but an add-on set that lifts a model you already have.

The real subject

The Lockheed F-104G Starfighter was a single-engine fighter with a characteristically thin trapezoidal wing and performance beyond twice the speed of sound. The G version was created for the European members of NATO and became the most widely used variant of the type — it flew with the German, Italian, Dutch and Belgian air forces among others. Machines from the later part of their service differed in equipment details, and it is these that the late version is aimed at.

Tips for working with photo-etched parts

Separate the parts with a sharp knife on a hard surface, bend them with smooth-jawed tweezers or a bending tool and glue them with a tiny amount of super glue applied on the tip of a pin. Do not repaint the color-printed parts — at the end it is enough to even them out carefully with a matte varnish so that the printing does not stay glossy.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers who want to lift the Starfighter cockpit in 1:48 quickly and without an airbrush
  • Builders of collections of NATO aircraft of the 1960s and 1970s
  • Beginners with photo-etch — the Zoom line is smaller and easy to follow
  • Contest modelers, as a basis for further detailing

This is an add-on set — the base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

No, it is an add-on set of photo-etched parts. The base F-104G kit in 1:48 scale has to be obtained separately.

The parts of the Zoom line are color-printed, so as a rule they are simply glued in place. Evening the look out at the end with a fine coat of matte varnish is advisable.

A small amount of cyanoacrylate super glue works best, or a varnish-based glue for small parts. Ordinary plastic cement does not work on metal.

Yes, the Zoom line is a smaller set focused on the most important details, so it suits a first experience with photo-etched parts too.
