The quality of the resin casting is flawless and bubble free and the clear lenses and photo etch are flawless.  The camera lenses had a rim around the lenses with tiny holes drilled in the rim......this is very fine detailing. The photo etch part for the underside of the fuselage also has rivet detailing. 

The instructions include a variety of line drawings and are fairly easy to follow after a bit of studying.  This is a neat set and just what you need if you want to build a Spitfire PR XI in 1/72 scale.

You can purchase these and other fine resin detail items directly from QuickBoost
