What can I say about these sets? If I say that's the most impressive brass work that I ever see or its aftermarket marvel, it still wouldn't enough to describe fine craft and artwork of these sets. You really need to have it and see them by yourself. When I ordered them I had no idea what I'll get since Robert's website don't have any pictures of his sets in 1/72 scale. So enough of words this sets really worth to take a look at them. Unfortunately my camera isn't good for such fine macro photography, but it's better than nothing and hopefully you will get idea why I'm so exited about these sets. So, here is set for Ju-87G, check horizontal groves on muzzle - have no idea how it was done.

The only downward of these sets is that they not cheap, but they worth every penny. Also notice that each set includes only one barrel. Another complication is payment method, unfortunately Robert doesn't accept credit cards, but I think its temporary problem. Anyway I'm glad to introduce and welcome new, truly unique and crafty producer of high quality aftermarket. His line of products goes well beyond this review and covers other scales as well.
