Turned metal torpedoes – a quick model upgrade

Turned metal torpedoes replace the plastic parts from the base kit and give correct proportions and a smooth body surface. They are worth considering if you want a higher level of detail for the torpedo tubes.

The parts are fixed with cyanoacrylate glue. Metal takes primer and paint well, so the torpedoes blend in with the rest of the model.
