Quickboost has added a set of cowl flaps for the Eduard 1/72 F6F Hellcat to their line of aircraft accessories. They are molded in grayish resin, smooth, seamless and bubble free.

The Eduard kit includes 3 different cowlings, depending on which version of the Hellcat that is needed. A nice instruction sheet is included showing where the Quickboost parts should go. This set isn’t for the rookie modeler because there is some delicate cutting involved to remove the molded-in flaps. Once the cutting is completed, the cowling will look more realistic.

I recommend this product to the more experienced modeler because of the amount of cutting involved. Thanks to Quickboost and IPMS/USA for the chance to do this review.
