This resin set includes a Merlin 61 engine and engine support frame, engine cowlings, exhausts, plus all the little bits needed to detail the engine compartment (plumbing etc).

There are 4 pages of instruction in the usual line drawing format that Eduard is famous for and which are so easy to follow.  

You will be required to fold the photoetch in this set, but if you have one of the Hold & Fold photo etch benders from The Small Shop, then this will be an easy process.  They have a variety of benders for sharp corners as well as rounded corners and in many different sizes.

This is a highly detailed Merlin 61 engine and will give you everything you need to make a stunning Spitfire MK VIII engine compartment.  This truly is an exceptional set and the detailing is exceptional.

You can buy this detail set and thousands of other items directly from Eduard Model Accessories.
