| Here's a nice upgrade for those plain looking turrets on your Trumpeter
1/350 HMS Hood. The set included four turrets and sighting hoods and
eight CNC machined gun barrels for them. |
 |
| RESIN PARTS |
|
|
|
| New resin turrets are provided to replace the incorrectly shaped ones
in the kit. These have cast on blast bags and separate sighting hoods.
The casting is good quality and the only cleanup needed on my sample was
to remove the gates place at the bottom rear of the turret body. |

|
| BRASS PARTS |
|
| The upgrade doesn't stop there. Brass CNC machined gun barrels are
provided to give the turrets that ultimate look. There just isn't any thing
that looks better than turned metal barrels. These are nice with center
drilled ends and locator pins on the opposite ends. |

|
| INSTRUCTIONS |
|
| The instructions are pretty straightforward. They show
the basic assembly with the sighting hood location. |

| CONCLUSIONS |
|
 This
set is a nice little detail addition for your HMS Hood. I like that it
is available as a separate set, so you can mix and match your favorite
aftermarket parts and wont be stuck with parts you don't want. Check out
this and other Lion Roar sets at your favorite retailer. You can find out
more at the Lion
Roar website. This is set #350007 with a retail price around $38.00. |
