Barracuda Studios | BR32157: 1/32 Scale Bf 109G-6 Upper Gun Cowling (Standard)
Reviewed by Kevin Futter
Barracuda Studios continues to expand its BarracudaCast range of resin upgrade and detail sets with a new replacement upper gun cowling for the Revell 1/32 scale Bf 109G-6 kit. Quoting from the set's packaging:
Detailed, accurate cowling corrects the spacing of the machine gun troughs on Revell's Bf 109G-6 kit part. For non-Erla built Gustavs.
Note that set BR32158 provides a similar replacement part for Erla-built machines.
While this is a simple one-piece replacement for the Revell kit part, some minor modifications are still required to the forward upper fuselage in order to make it fit.
A small folded sheet of instructions is included, comprising descriptive text, photos, and diagrams. They tell you all you need to know to get the most out of this simple upgrade set.
Conclusion
This set is a no-brainer for someone looking to build an accurate 1/32 scale non-Erla Bf 109G-6 from the Revell kit. As long as the provided instructions are carefully followed, any modeller with a modicum of experience should have no trouble improving their build with it.
Thanks to Barracuda Studios for the review sample.
