Mark I 1/144 L-29 Detailing Set
By Matt Bittner
Mark I has released the 1/144 L-29 Delfin as a Dual Combo kit (two in a box). With this way of releasing a kit you can build one kit out of the box and build the other as super detailed as you want (or, of course, you can build both out-of-the-box or super detail both, just however you feel like finishing your kits). Mark I has helped with the super detail department by releasing a set for one L-29.
This set consists of a fret of photoetch, two resin, wing pitot tubes and a display base. The photoetch fret has pieces for the cockpit (side consoles for both crew compartments, control stick, rudder pedals, seat-back with shoulder harnesses, seat belts and instrument panels); side-wall detail for each fuselage half; replacement spine antennas, cockpit side-steps, replacement landing gear doors and other bits-and-pieces for the exterior.
As the kit doesn't come with wing pitot tubes the resin ones in this set are a must, unless you want to use your own material. The base is one of Mark I's printed, cardboard ones and will look good underneath one – or both – Delfins.
So, if you're looking to add detail to one of your Mark I 1/144 L-29 Delfins then pick up this set, but remember the Detailing Set only comes with material for one model and not two, even though they released the L-29 as a Dual Combo (two-in-a-box) kit.
