This is an extensive photo-etched detail set for the Revell-Monogram 1/48 B-24J Liberator kit. The photo-etch sheet measures 8.5" x 5.5" and is loaded with parts as you can see in the images. This set includes:

  • Cockpit window frames (paint these and you have no window masking!)
  • Cockpit armor plating
  • Interior cockpit details includeing new seats, control columns and throttle levers
  • Extensive new structure to overlay the front and rear gun turrets. This includes new gun details as well
  • Interior walkways and bulkheads for the bomb bays
  • Engine ignition harnesses and supercharger details
  • Main gear wheel hub details
  • Nosegear door interior details
  • Main wheel well interior detailing
  • Main gear torque links

This set will take the already-nice Revell-Monogram kit (previously reviewed here) and add additional details for the afflicted AMS modeler. You can see their full line-up of products on the Flightpath website.

Definitely recommended for the AMS modeler.

I picked my set up from Great Models Webstore.
