Here are the pictures of the Choroszy Modelbud kit of the Swedish torpedo boat T11 (MAS 500 Series) in 1/72 scale. The kit is in resin and etched metal:

Etched parts:
The resin castings are very fine and show a HIGH degree of detail. They are of an excellent quality:
Decals (need replacements, wrong blue colour):
Instructions (quite simple):
The kit was quite expensive, 90 USD is a lot of money. But I am seduced by the quality of the castings and the attention to detail. The engines even have the cooling fans in place! Of course the true test will be the actual build of the kit. Once I get around to do that.
Until then: ha det bra!
