Eduard 1/48 Spitfire Mk.Vb Flaps
By Andrew Birkbeck
The new Airfix Spitfire Mk.Vb is a great kit, but even the best kits can be enhanced with additional detail. Eduard as usual has provided modelers with a number of aftermarket sets to improve the plastic mode as it comes in the box. The set reviewed here covers the landing flaps. Unlike some sets, the parts in this set are not pre colored, nor self adhesive.
Looking over the instructions that come with this set, some intricate and careful folding of the parts will be involved to get the best from the parts. However, if the modeler is up for such a challenge, then very nicely detailed flap mechanisms will result. I would like to thank Eduard for providing the review sample.
