This resin and photo etch set includes four SSW D.III guns with 2 being mostly resin with resin cooling jackets and the other 2 using quite a bit of photo etch including photo etch cooling jackets and metal gun barrels.

There are 2 pages of instruction in the usual line drawing format that Eduard is famous for and which are so easy to follow.  

You will be required to roll the photoetch cooling jackets in this set, but if you have one of the Hold & Fold photo etch cylinder rollers from The Small Shop, then this will be an easy process.  They have a variety of benders for sharp corners as well as rounded corners and in many different sizes.

These guns are highly detailed and the resin guns with the resin cooling jackets will respond well to subtle dry brushing and or a wash.  The 2 guns with the photo etch cooling jackets will be more effort to assemble, but they will reward you with a more realistic look.

You can buy this detail set and thousands of other items directly from Eduard Model Accessories.
