This pre-painted photo etch detail set from Eduard is part of the Zoom series of photo etch sets and is available directly from Sprue BrosThis is mostly a cockpit detail set designed for the 1/72 Trumpeter BAC Lightning F.6/ F.2A.  The parts include some pre-painted parts for the instrument panel, side consoles, seat belts, ejection seat handles etc.  You also get 1 exterior part.  Also included is a clear acetate film for the HUD.

There is 1 page of instructions in the usual line drawing format that Eduard is famous for and which are so easy to follow.  You will be required to cut away detail on the kit parts to fit these photo etched parts, but this is indicated on the instruction sheets.

You will be required to fold the photo etch in this set, but if you have one of the Hold & Fold photo etch benders 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.

This pre-painted photos etch detail set does a fine job detailing the cockpit of the 1/72 Trumpeter BAC Lightning F.6/ F.2A. 

You can buy this pre-painted photo etch detail set and thousands of other items directly from the Sprue Brothers Models site They are famous for their prompt service.
