Turned metal barrels – a quick upgrade for your model

Replacing the plastic barrels with turned metal ones improves detail fidelity at the 203 mm main-gun turrets and at the 105 mm dual-purpose artillery. It is a convenient way to raise the finish level of the heavy cruiser model.

For assembly it is worth considering cyanoacrylate glue, which bonds metal to the plastic of the ship structure effectively.
