Eduard “Brassin” B-25H/J wheels 1/32nd scale review & construction
Although it is a pretty good kit in itself it is funny that the new HK Models
B-25 kit has seen many aftermarket extras made to improve it still further – more than it’s fair share some
would say, and most we have been shown off here – well just when you thought we had
it all covered we saw these beautiful looking wheels from the “Brassin” range
from Eduard – are these new shoes “just right” or are they the emperor’s new
clothes? Let’s look in our review

The new HK B-25”H” model in 1/32nd – we are
assured it will hit the shelves in the US this week – well the decals
supplied aren’t the strongest part of the kit – we have a remedy however – in the
form of EagleCals sheet EC#146 – three different markings
choices for three colourful ships – let’s look at the decal sheet a bit closer
and show you the real aircraft to compare the accuracy shall we?

very good – well David from Wings Cockpit Figures has
come to our rescue with these beautiful figures for WWII ( and more WWI)
aircraft. We have lots of images and their particulars – with a window to
upcoming releases in our preview…

and character to them – we will see for ourselves when we build three figures
from their latest big set – soldiers from the Battle of Velikiye Luki on the
