WOODLAND BASE
Creating a convincing diorama base can be challenging, but Reality in Scale’s pre-formed 20 x 30cm Landscape Mats, such as the Forest Floor, will reduce the work greatly.
HEINKEL GREENHOUSE
This is one of five Eduard photoetched brass sets designed for ICM’s 1/48 Heinkel He 111 and is focused on the extensively glazed nose section, including components for the pilot and navigator/bomb-aimer positions.
FIRST VANGUARD
Modellers wanting to backdate their AZ Model or Sword Vanguard to the first prototype airframe need look no further than this splendid resin conversion set from Arctic Decals, produced in association with Dekno Models.
HOVERING FOR TWO
In the absence of a dedicated two-seat Harrier II kit, there have been several attempts to produce conversion sets for either Monogram’s or Hasegawa’s single-seater offerings.
PHANTOM LASER
Here’s a handy accessory for modellers wanting to build a 1970s/1980s-era laser-designating US Air Force F-4D Phantom, in the shape of a four-part PAVE Tack pod and associated adapter ‘shoe’ for the type’s centreline pylon.
DISCO-ERA ‘CONNIE’
Having caused a stir in the Season 1 finale of Star Trek: Discovery, the restyled Constitution-class USS Enterprise is now available as a 1/2500 Polar Lights kit, for which Greenstrawberry has produced a photo-etched metal upgrade.
ALL IN A CLUSTER
Eduard has recently expanded its range of Brassin accessories to cover a variety of large-scale munitions, and one of its latest additions is this set of six 1/32 Mk.20 Rockeye fittings.
HATS AND BOXES
While CMK has suggested this accessory set is for its Marder II anti-tank gun, these lovely resin extras would be useful for most German artillery systems.
RE-USEABLE COVERINGS
While kabuki-style tape masking is more popular than vinyl, the latter does have advantages when it comes to multiple usage, being far more robust.
TORNADO JAMMER
Eduard’s resin 1/48 Skyshadow pod is ideal for any RAF Tornado GR, replacing kit components with a far superior alternative that’s also good value for money.
