Barracuda Studios rarely have a lull don't
they? Well Roy has had a day or so off over Xmas and then post-haste sent news of his latest amazing little
set – if applied to your 48th scale Typhoon – well the pictures
speak for themselves – see more in our preview of this excellent new lot of update
sets from Barracuda Studios...
Barracuda Studios
are proud to announce the release of 3 new 1/48th scale products in the
BarracudaCast resin detail set line. These sets are up on the website now and
available for order.
These new sets are designed to upgrade the very good 1/48th
Hasegawa Hawker Typhoon Mk. Ib series of kits. The external sets are designed
for both Car-door and Bubbletop variants, but the cockpit is designed
specifically for the Bubbletop version.
This thoroughly researched and super detailed cockpit set is
designed for the 1/48th Hasegawa Bubbletop Typhoon kits. It consists of a
complete resin cockpit with a photo-etched instrument panel with very detailed,
readable film dials and a number of other small etched details. The seat has a moulded in Sutton Harness for ease of building. No major thinning or surgery is
required to install this set. The parts can be modified to fit the Monogram
kit.
This set contains a much more detailed and accurate pair of
intake fronts designed for all versions of the Hasegawa Typhoon, one standard
and one with a dust filter fitted with cuckoo clock doors. Also included are
two sets of detailed, hollowed out exhausts, both faired and unfaired. May also
be made to fit the Monogram Typhoon.
This set consists of a pair of accurate and detailed 5-slot
mainwheels fitted to later production Car-door and all Bubbletop Typhoons. The
tires are smooth, and the wheel hubs are detailed down to the castellations in
the axle nut. Also included is a detailed one piece tailwheel casting. Perfect
for the 1/48 Hasegawa or Monogram Typhoon kits.
There are now ready
to be shipped from Barracuda Studios Directly!
