  • 30 resin pieces

  • 1 fret of pre-painted photo etch parts

  • 1 fret of unpainted photo etch parts

This is a very comprehensive multi-media kit that even includes a pilot's helmet.  The is loaded with wonderful detail and is further complimented with the photo etch parts for the seat.  The instrument panel is a resin backing and covered with layers of pre-painted photo etch for the gauges.  The sidewalls are covered in many parts to give a highly detailed finished model.

There are 6 pages of instruction in the usual line drawing format that Eduard is famous for and which are so easy to follow.  Painting instructions are also included. 

You will be required to fold the photoetch 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.  There are also photo etch frames to attach to the inside of the canopy.  CA glue will fog clear styrene if the clear parts aren't coated with Future.

This set is loaded with detail and is a kit all in it's own.  This cockpit set will do wonders to upgrade the cockpit detail on the MiG-21PFM from Eduard.

You can buy this detail set and thousands of other items directly from Eduard Model Accessories.
