| LionRoar has released a set of IJN Funnel Foot Rails in 1/700, set R7033. The set includes two different styles of foot rails. There are a total of 15 foot rails on the fret – eight for style 1 and seven for style 2. | ||||||

| THE FRET | ||||||
|
These don’t say what type of ship they are for, and the funnel in the instructions appears to be a “generic” funnel, simply for illustration. The foot rails are very thin and it appears that the foot rail itself is thicker than the attachment points, giving it a bit of a 3D effect. These are attached to the main fret on each end, and on three points along the foot rails. |
||||||
The instructions are a single, small piece of paper,
with a drawing of a generic IJN funnel and instructions to “please install
at the suitable position you need”. As always, check your references.

| CONCLUSIONS | ||||||
| There are very delicate and very finely done. Those modelers wishing to super-detail their Imperial Japanese Navy ships will find these useful. This is Lion Roar set R7033, WWII IJN Funnel Foot Rails. They retail for $7.95, and are available from many of our sponsors. Thanks to LionRoar for the review sample. Recommended for experienced modelers with extensive experience using fine photo-etch. |
