My empathy is with you. I wish manufacturers would provide alternatives to photo etch, like the Dragon kits use to. I know many modelers like the detail and scale PE provides, but I really struggle with bending them to the proper shape and placing and gluing with CA. Previous Message
I am working on this kit, like all Trumpeter kits their are minor inaccuracies, but my difficulty
Is with their small parts photoetch, which is incredibly thin and hard to assemble without it falling apart. The mast aerials, yardarms on both māsts and air warning radar on the mainmast are prime examples.
Are there any aftermarket alternatives?
Many thanks and Happy New Year to all
