Using pe railings on a ship, but its not for that kit?

Post by Bob the Stug »

Good evening all

I am about to start the Very Fire standard Yamato, this has very basic pe and no railings.

The only set I can see which are made to length etc and not just a generic set, are by Eduard for the Tamiya updated Yamato kit.

It is worthwhile using or would the difference be too much

Thanks bob

Well, between one precut for the Tamiya kit versus a generic cut-it-yourself set, I think the one for the Tamiya would be the easier one to adapt. Worst case, you'll have some areas where you're a bit short, which isn't that noticeable, or it's a bit long, in which case you'll have to snip it either short or snip to length and move the stanchion forward.
De quoi s'agit-il?
