Barracuda Studios new enhancements for many aircraft kits in December
Barracuda Studios is proud and excited to announce the latest batch of new products.
The Barracuda Studios team are continuing to develop their 3D printing capabilities, and the majority of new products are 3D printed in gray resin. For the modeller, this new medium offers some real advantages for some types of parts. For other parts, such as wheels, their yellow tan cast resin is a better material. Both are excellent mediums to reproduce super detailed and accurate upgrade parts for your model kits.
This batch of new parts focuses heavily on 1/72nd subjects, as they have been a bit neglected of late. If 1/48th is your scale, Barracuda have new sets coming soon for you in January.
