Eduard 1:350 etch set for Dragon Z-39 Destroyer

German Z-39 Destroyer
Eduard 1:350

Whilst he Trumpeter Z class destroyers have been getting the Eduard treatment lately, this set for the Z-39 is for the Dragon kit. Now the Dragon kit is in their Super Kit range which already includes some etched brass this set adds even more detail for the completed model.

(53076) The single sheet contains a range of railings missing from the kits sets, several types of inclined ladders, four torpedo reload shelters, a number of life rings, and bollard tops. For the ships boats there is a new roof for the motor boat with railings for the foredeck, and for the cutter there is a set of oars, new rudder and “rope” grab handles for around the hull. The rangefinder bandstand receives a new walkway whilst the single gun turrets get new folded curtains. Finally there are forty liferaft floorboards.

Conclusion
Another great little set from Eduard for detailing the Z-39 which, combined will lift an already superb kit to an almost museum quality model. Recommended.
