It looks great! Any chance of Flyhawk doing a similar set for Dragon's Chevalier, or can this set be used for that kit as well.

Plus, what is this set's estimated market price?

Keep up the good work! :big_grin:

Damn, just what I need, something else I have to try to slip past the C-in-C! Gotta have it for my Gearing.

Looks just great, like it will really dress up an already highly detailed kit. What a great time to be in ship modeling.

Thank you so much for your attention !
As for the Chevalier,it doesn't on our project now and sorry,
we have no time to research whether Gearing kit could fit Chevalier or not.
Hope you can understand !

I completely understand. But heck, that set looks good enough for me to just buy a Gearing just to use the set! :lol_3:

Really, it's a beautiful set for a beautiful kit. Who could ask for more?

Very good looking set, but I think I'll wait until a FRAM version is released. :thumbs_up_1:

The set looks very nice, but ...

One problem I see with this PE set.

The quad 40-mm mounts on GEARINGS/SUMNERS/FLETCHERS did NOT have shields on the mounts!!! The on mount shields were used on some larger warships, but most quad 40-mm mounts only had the rails around the back of the mount and maybe a couple of small ready service racks mounted to the rails.

If the PE is going to be used on warships that had the on mount shields, fine. But it is wrong for GEARING class destroyers.

Hello Davis,

Thank you so much for your attention and the question you found.You are a so careful man. yes,you are right.Actually,there are no shields on the mounts for the Gearing ,but our PE for 40mm mount is general set ,so you may have a choice to use it or not, as you wish.
