Eduard BRASSIN PRINT 1/48 scale

Reviewed by Brett Green

Eduard has expanded its range of accessories for the MiniArt 1/48 scale Focke-Wulf Fw 190 D-9 kits.

Eduard Item No. 3DL48281 - Fw 190 D-9 SPACE for MiniArt Kit

This SPACE set comprises 3D printed decals for the instrument panel and auxiliary switch panels, side consoles plus convincing half-tone harness straps for the seat.

This will result in a busy and realistic cockpit with a minimum of effort.

I have used SPACE sets on several of my projects and I have been very pleased with the results. The 3D printed decals look really good in real life - better than my much larger-than-life studio photos!

I found that the 3D decals barely needed to be wet at all before they would slide - or sometimes fall - off the backing sheet. I used Gator’s Grip acrylic glue to secure the 3D printed decals to the plastic kit parts.

Detailed instructions are included.

Eduard Item No. 6481212 - Fw 190 D-9 Gun Sight PRINT for MiniArt Kit

This is a simple, one piece upgrade depicting the instrument coaming and the mostly invisible gun sight.

These are presented in grey coloured 3d printed resin.

Gun sight reflectors are presented as printed acetate parts.

Eduard Item No. 6481200 - Fw 190 D-9 Seat PRINT for MiniArt Kit

Eduard has added to their 3d printed resin seat series with one for the MiniArt 1/48 scale Fw 190 D-9.

Harness straps are printed in place.

Detail is sharp, they look natural and the drape is realistic.

This style of seat and integrated harness are my favourite.

Eduard Item No. 6481201 - Fw 190 D-9 Wheels PRINT for MiniArt Kit

Eduard has released a set of wheels for the recent MiniArt 1/48 scale Focke-Wulf Fw 190 D-9 kits.

The wheels feature cross tread tyres andsolid hub wheels.

A one-piece tail wheel strut is also included.

3d printing is totally blemish free.

Preparation and installation will be a breeze.

Eduard Item No. 6481203 - Fw 190 D-9 Undercarriage Legs PRINT for MiniArt Kit

These new undercarriage legs will be suitable for any of the MiniArt 1/48 scale Focke-Wulf Fw 190 D-9 kits.

All parts are 3d printed in grey resin. Four parts are included.

The 3d printed undercarriage legs and doors should be fast and easy to free from their resin printing artefacts.

Oleo scissors and hydraulic lines have been authentically depicted and are printed in place on the legs.

Print quality is remarkable. The parts are translucent in places.

Instructions are included.

Detail is beautiful to behold.

Eduard Item No. 6481199 - Fw 190 D-9 Exhaust Stacks PRINT for MiniArt Kit

Another simple but effective upgrade, Eduard has released a set of fishtail exhausts for the recent 1/48 scale Fw 190 D-9 kits.

The fishtail stacks are all crisply hollowed out.

Parts removal from the printing block will be a breeze.

The exhausts should be a drop-fit replacement for the kit's plastic parts.

Eduard Item No. 644346 - Fw 190 D-9 LOOK for MiniArt Kit

This simple update includes three parts in 3d printed resin plus a modest photo-etched fret.

These represent the instrument panel and harness straps.

Two of the resin parts are presented in colour.

This will be a very fast and easy for your Dora's front office.

Eduard Item No. FE1587 - Fw 190 D-9 ZOOM for MiniArt Kit

If you are a fan of Eduard's colour photo-etch, this is a straightforward and economical solution for your MiniArt Fw 190 D-9 kits.

The set comprises one compact-sized colour photo-etched fret.

Colour instrument panels, side consoles and a switch box are the highlights of this set.

Also included are oleo scissors, rudder pedals, handles and more.

Eduard Item EX1177 - TFace Canopy Mask

Eduard has also released a TFace canopy mask for this kit.

TFace provide self-adhesive, die-cut, double-sided canopy masks plus wheel masks.

Clearly illustrated instructions are included.

Eduard’s latest accessories offer MiniArt’s 1/48 scale Fw 190 D-9 a comprehensive range of cockpit, airframe and finishing upgrades.

Whether you prefer the convenience of 3D-printed resin, the finesse of SPACE decals or the traditional appeal of colour photo-etch, there are options to suit different modelling preferences and budgets.

Print quality is consistently impressive, and many of these additions promise excellent results with minimal effort.

These are well-considered upgrades that should help MiniArt’s Dora reach its full potential.
