If you've been modeling for any period of time, you've probably heard of Armor Research and their like of detail parts for 1/35 armor subjects. The company is owned by our own Ray Mehlberger and I had to ask him why we don't see much of his stuff these days. Like many aftermarket companies, Armor Research has been selling direct to the modeler. A link to the website is at the end of this review.

Ray was kind enough to send a few samples out of his current production line-up. In this case, here are ten rounds of two-part 150mm (15cm) artillery ammunition. If you're modeling the sIG 33 canon, or something armed with this gun, here is an ample supply of ammunition to feed the gun for a few minutes.

At $5.00, this set is an economical way to add additional details to your project. Give 'em a try. You can purchase this set directly from Armor Research at:

My sincere thanks to Armor Research for this review sample.
