German Z-32 Destroyer Eduard 1:350 Eduard haven’t forgotten the Dragon Z-32 kit, even though it’s been out for quite a while, with the release of these two sets of relief etched brass, absolutely filled with detail accessories. (53151) The single sheet contains a range of fittings for the turrets, several types of inclined ladders, torpedo launcher control positions, which are little kits in themselves, with a lot of detail included, right down to the control boxes and seat. There are a number of life rings, gratings for the square Carley type floats, funnel cap and railing for the funnel and new shields for the flak guns . For the ships boats there are a new set of oars, new rudder and propeller. There are a range of replacement deck hatches, which can all be posed open should you wish, whilst there are also replacement cable reels, for which the modeller will ahve to provided the drum out of plastic rod. The radar array is completely replaced with a very detailed unit which will make all the difference to the look of the ship along with the rope walks for the yardarms. (53152) This single sheet set contains a full ships complement of railings, which always help give the model a more accurate look. Along with the railings there are a set of replacement mine rails, which, once the kits details have been removed, will need to be carefully glued into place. Each rail consists of a base section, much like the sleepers of a railway track, and two separate rail sections, which will be quite demanding to get right in this scale, but well worth the effort. Conclusion Eduard continue to release superb sets for us maritime modellers, no matter what ship is released, they have a set or five for it. These sets will certainly help improve the look of the Dragon kit, but probably not good for the novice though, as there are some quite awkward parts to fit. Review sample courtesy of
