This aftermarket set, for a 1/350 HMS Belfast, comes in Master Model’s usual packaging. The 4 different types of parts are in their own bags, with all these bags and the instruction sheet inside another sealed bag, with a card stiffener. All this is then stapled shut as well with a card header.
The instructions are very clear and straightforward. For the 6″ guns you replace the plastic parts with the parts in the kit using the assembly images shown. Â For the 4″ guns you simply remove the plastic barrels, drill a 0.5 mm hole in the existing plastic and insert the new brass barrels with cyanoacrylate.
The quality of the brass and resin parts is very good. Just a little bit of work and you now have hollowed out 6″ and 4″ gun barrels.
The set is available for approx $19.00 US, depending where you shop.
Many thanks to Master Model for the review sample.
