  1. Maritime Accessories 1:350 Master Models Master models continue to build up their range of 1:350 scale armament sets, but they are now increasing the items produced to add other accessories, which now includes two of the three releases reviewed here. As usual they are up to the standard we’ve come to expect from Master Models. [350-086] The first set is for the Trumpeter Tsesarevich 1904 which not only includes both main, (305mm), secondary, (152mm), but also tertiary armament, (75mm, 47mm, 37mm). These are all direct replacements for he kit parts, and will need the removal of the kit barrels before drilling appropriate sized hole into the breech for the tang of the barrel to be glued into. As you can probably imagine the smaller calibre barrels are extremely small and fiddly, but they will certainly add the scale look of the completed model when fitted. [350-087] This set is the first of a new line from Master, and consists of a selection of turned brass yardarms. The contains two of each size which are 10mm, 15mm, 20mm, 25mm, 30mm, and 35mm. Whilst they are beautifully turned, the smaller yards are very prone to being bent, and due to the packaging they are even more prone to this on removal, (ask me how I know). When straight, they are direct replacements for the kit parts are and, as with the barrels we’re more used to receiving from Master Models are a much better scale thickness than injection moulding can manage. [350-088] This second set of yardarms provides the modeller with another six yards, similar to the above set, but of the larger yards seen on the likes of battleships. There is one yard per size and come in 40mm, 45mm, 50mm, 55mm, and 65mm. Whilst these are less prone to being bent on removal from the packaging, the ends are still very thin and can easily be bent if you’re a little heavy handed. Oh yes! They are blooming sharp too, as I found out when trying to lay them out for the photograph. Conclusion The barrels for the Tsesarevich are well up to the standards we’ve come to expect from Master Models, with the added distinction of being some of the smallest turned parts I’ve seen in 1:350. The new yardarm sets are also a very useful and welcome addition to the product line. Apologies for the fuzziness of the smaller parts, but my camera just couldn't focus on them. Very highly recommended. Review sample courtesy of Piotr at
  2. It's been quite a while since I've built a model, mainly due to chronic back pain and depression. But having reviewed this kit HERE, I felt a spark of interest, so today I've broken the tools and paints out and sorted out the modelling table ready to go. I also thought I'd do a WIP and build review while I'm at it. Gratuitous box shot.
