CMK 1/72 Resin Detail Sets

CMK 7015 Ta 154V-3 Interior Set
For the Hasegawa Kit

Hasegawa 1/72 kits all seem to lack in the cockpit area, generally being made up from decals. To spruce up the front office, one generally needs to turn to either etched brass or resin. CMK has come to the rescue for the Ta 154V-3 with this nice resin interior. You get a one-piece cockpit tub, a new front wheel well, two seats, control sticks and a gun sight, all in polyurethane resin. The etched fret adds instrument panels, rudder pedals, seat belts, and some sidewall detailing. A clear vacuformed canopy rounds out the set, making sure that all this detail will be very visible. A nice way to add a lot to the front office to the Hasegawa Ta 154 kit.

CMK 7017 & 7018 Me262A & B Interior Sets
For the Smer/Heller Kits

The old Heller kit of the Me262 may not be the best out there, but it is readily available and builds up into a fairly decent kit. One shortcoming of the kit, like most Heller kits, is the interior. While adequate when the kit first came out, it has been surpassed by modern kits. With Smer re-releasing the Heller kit, this set from CMK is timely. Set 7017 is for the Me262A, while set 7018 is for the Me262B. The only difference between the two is the Me262B set has the extra cockpit tub, a second seat, and the canopy railing. Oh, and a different canopy, of course!

The parts are well-molded and should fit the Heller kit very well. The one-piece cockpit tubs might take a bit of work to paint up, but they were generally one color anyway so it shouldn't be too hard. The etched fret includes the instrument panels, rudder pedals, and other small details. If you've got some Heller Me262s sitting in your closet, you might want to take a look at this set.

CMK 7021 P-40M/N Interior Set
For the Academy Kit

Academy's 1/72 P-40N is a very nice kit and out of the box builds up beautifully. But what if you want to build a P-40M? Well, CMK has answered that call with this set. Not only do you get a full interior for the kit, they also provide an insert to fit in the fuselage to convert the P-40N canopy back to the original style with the teardrop rear portion. Fill in the grills on the nose, and you could also do a late P-40K from this set.

The interior is made up of a separate floor and side panels, a seat, headrest & rear bulkhead, and a control stick, all finely molded in resin. The etched fret adds the instrument panel (one for the M and one for the N), seat belts and rudder pedals. The P-40M portion is supplied in resin and looks like it will fit beautifully. Two canopies are provided, one for the P-40N and one for the P-40M, although on the P-40M only the front portion is provided, leaving the rear teardrops for kit parts. All in all, this is an excellent set and I'll probably pick up a second one so I can do both a P-40N and a P-40M.
