The new Zvezda kit picks up where the excellent Bf-109F kit leaves off. The new kit shares many of the same sprues and because of this it has some similar issues. Notably the kit needs some help in a few areas, namely the ailerons, exhausts and wheel wells. Well Vector has stepped up to the plate and provided some exquisite resin corrections.
The kit ailerons feature some exquisite fabric representation on the top side, but only on the top side. The bottom is missing the fabric detail. Not a horrible thing but a noticeable oversight. It is a shame that Zvezda didn’t take the time to correct this but Vector provides you with two new ailerons with beautiful detail on both sides.
Everything is a drop fit replacement for the kit parts. So there is not annoying cutting, sanding and filling. Just remove the pour block and you are ready to add the parts. This set takes the beautiful Zvezda kit up a notch. The easy replacement means that anyone can add them. Floyd S. Werner, Jr. IPMS No.: 26266 |
