Eduard 491579 - 1:48 Hampden B Mk.I

Photo-etched detail set for Hampden B Mk.I in 1/48 scale

Eduard 491579 is a modelling accessory set featuring photo-etched parts designed for the Handley Page Hampden B Mk.I bomber in 1/48 scale. The set is intended for the ICM kit and allows modelers to enhance selected exterior details of the aircraft model.

Photo-etched parts allow a much higher level of detail compared to standard injection-moulded plastic components. Their thin and precise construction makes it possible to reproduce small structural elements that would otherwise be difficult to achieve using plastic parts.
