Info Eduard - July 2012
EDITORIAL
The July kit offerings have, in my opinion, some
the nicest boxart we have ever produced. The
Bf 110E carries the last and without a doubt,
most effective, work by Petr Stepanek.
Unfortunately, he was unable to commit to the
art for the Lightning kit, and the responsibility
fell on Martin Lebl. Some will notice the
difference, and some won’t, but one fact of life
remains, that when two do the same thing, it isn’t
always the ‘same thing’, even if the end result
may achieve a similar standard, as in this case.
Even if one person does the same thing twice,
it may not amount to being the ‘same thing’. This
is especially noticeable if the two things have
a time span of ve years separating them. This
is what was running through my head, when
I was gluing together the still-warm Bf 110E test
shots, and was immensely enjoying the ease of
assembly, where all fell together as it should,
and looked as it should, and felt as it should.
In comparison with the older 1/48th scale kit,
which is not a fair ght, this smaller version could
be considered as retribution. But, please, that
doesn’t mean we will be shipping free kits!
Although it will not be at rst evident, the
smaller version really does come out of the
older 48th scale kit. Design data was naturally
taken advantage of to the max. Of course,
our approach was different, and the concept
is diametrically opposed. First and foremost,
we surrendered the notion of replicating every
detail, and notably those that are not visible
in the assembled model. The end result is a kit
that is fundamentally less complicated, but still
pays due attention to visible detail. This will
be noticeable in the interior, extending even
to the wheel wells, and to the opposite end of
the spectrum in the nose, that in 1/72nd scale
provides only the gun barrels. Most modelers
are unlikely to miss the full compartment, and the
barrels that are there are very well done, and
their protrusion from their respective openings
are very elegant. Those that insist on the nose
weapon compartment to be represented will
nd a set for that in the Brassin range, which
will eventually include a whole range of details
for this kit. The aforementioned nose gun bay
is being introduced in July along with the kit
release, along with another Brassin set containing
wheels. I must add that, ladies and gentlemen,
the nose gun bay set is an absolute gem! If the
kit itself is to be considered top rate, then this
set will elevate it even further. If you doubt it,
I urge you to get to your local hobby shop, or the
internet, and take a look for yourself. Look at
the kit as well as the resin detail sets. I’d also like
to point out that we were also able to print an
additional decal sheet for the subject, also being
released this month.
What will rightfully become a point of
discussion, and likely criticism, is riveting.
Compared to the recent 48th scale kits, notably
the Bf 109E, we didn’t do much riveting this time.
Truth be told, almost no riveting. During the course
of planning the design of this kit, when attention
turned to surface treatment, the usefulness of
rivets in this scale came into question, and the
voice of the people tended to be in opposition
for the most part. We took this into serious
account. Now, it appears that times have again
changed, and the tendency seems to be leaning
back towards the representation of rivets, as we
have done on the Bf 109E. Those that wanted
the rivets to be there....sorry! Hope you are not
among those that griped about the rivets on the
MiG-21! And don´t be mistaken the front page
110 model is riveted. It is simply because the
autor of the model, David Bilek, loves riveting,
and he must add rivet lines to all his jobs.
But, you know, the debate surrounding riveting
is a pretty interesting one, at the very least,
don’t you think? Historically speaking, different
nations had different approaches to the real
thing. Take for example, during wartime - the
English seemed to follow the wisdom that rivets
were a form of insurance, and rivets represented
longevity and ultimate victory. They put around
one-and-a-half times the amount of rivets
into the Spitre as the Germans did into the
