The set consists of two photo etch sheets, both unpainted brass. You get parts to add details to the main gear areas of the engine nacelles. These consist of new ribs and frames. Also included are details to enhance the already very detailed engines. There are parts to detail the inside of the engine cowling access doors and engine cooling doors. You also get framing detail for these access hatches.

The instructions are quite adequate in explaining bending and placing the details. They also tell you what you have to remove on the existing parts so they will fit.

The down side of these beautiful detail sets is that once the plane is completed, it is hard to see all the work you have done. But I know they are there and if you look real real close you can see them.

HIGHLY recommended. One should have experience working with photo etch and using ACC glues or epoxy.

The set consists of two paper tape sheets. These are pre-cut to fit the clear parts on the Mitchell. If you were only going to buy one detail set for the B-25, this would be the one you would have to get. The masks are designed to fit each clear piece on the model. Once they’re applied, you can leave them on for the duration of the build and let them be the last thing to remove before showing off your masterpiece.

I used two of these sets to do my plane. You only get enough to do the outside of the clear parts and I wanted to show the framing on the inside, too. They are easy to apply and can very easy to line up. A little burnishing is all that is needed before your first coat of paint. Try not to go too heavy on the first coat; you might get some seepage under the masks.

The instructions are quite adequate in explain the placement of each mask. The downside of this beautiful masking set is you only get enough to do the outside.

Eduard of the Czech Republic had released a 1/35 scale photo etched (PE) upgrade designed for the Trumpeter SU-152 Late, kit #05568. This upgrade consists of two PE sheets packaged in a sturdy, cardboard-supported bag with a two-page instruction sheet.

I used Trumpeter’s SU-152 Early kit, #01571, for a few parts since I was already doing a review of it. There are only a couple differences between the early and late SU-152 and this kit would work on either quite well.
