Eduard 1/72 Spitfire F Mk.IX Photo Etch
By Jacob Russell
This photo-etch set is for Eduard's Spitfire F Mk.IX kit. It consists of 33 parts on a single fret. It's different than a Zoom set, which usually include items such as an instrument panel and seat belts. It offers upgrades such as a new cockpit door, landing gear doors, a new seat, headrest armor, throttle quadrant, rudder pedals, wing radiator doors, etc.
Eduard's series of 1/72nd scale Supermarine Spitfire Mk.IX kits have been warmly received. They are dimensionally accurate and highly detailed. There are practical limits to what can be achieved with injection molding technology and in these instances photo-etch parts can offer greater detail and scale thickness.
I recommend this set and I would like to thank Eduard for the review sample.
