Barracuda Studios New
products for March 2013
Barracuda Studios is proud to announce the release of 4 new
1/72nd scale and 2 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 1/72nd scale sets represent an expanding product
line for builders of 1/72nd scale kits. More will follow in the next few
months. For 1/48th scale builders of WWII Russian fighters, we present two sets
that represent a fast and easy upgrade for a number of different aircraft. Here
are the details.
Accurate, detailed resin mainwheels replace undersized kit
parts for the 1/72 Frog, Airfix and Special Hobby Blenheim kits of all marks.
These wheels were designed from photos and dimensions taken off surviving
mainwheels and include raised logos on both sides. All 1/72 Blenheim kit wheels
are both too small and completely wrong in proportion and detail. This simple
upgrade will make short work of this problem.
