This Eduard photoetch detailing set is for experienced scale modelers looking to add authentic Royal Navy ensign flags to their 1:700 scale WWII ship models. Its key benefit is providing highly detailed, thin metal flags for a realistic appearance. A crucial caveat is that this set is specifically designed for a particular model kit, so compatibility must be confirmed before purchase, and it's not suitable for young children due to small parts.

This set is designed for 1:700 scale model kits.
The flags are made from steel photoetch.
No, this set is specifically designed for a particular model kit. Compatibility must be confirmed with the product's labeling and your specific model kit.
Yes, the thin steel photoetch material allows for gentle bending with fine-tipped tools to simulate movement in a breeze.
You will need fine-tipped tweezers, a sharp hobby knife or photoetch nippers, and cyanoacrylate (super) glue or a photoetch-specific adhesive.
No, this product is not suitable for children under 14 years old due to small parts and the need for specialized modeling tools and techniques.
Store them in their original packaging or a dedicated photoetch storage case to protect them from damage and loss.
Ensure both the flag and the model surface are clean and free from dust or mold release agents. Use a small amount of fresh, high-quality cyanoacrylate glue or a suitable photoetch adhesive.
Handle with extreme care using fine-tipped tweezers. Minor bends can sometimes be carefully straightened with flat-nosed tweezers. If severely damaged, replacement may be necessary.
This is inherent to photoetch material. Ensure you are using the correct 1:700 scale part. For even thinner results, some advanced modelers may carefully thin edges, but this requires significant skill and is not generally recommended.
Compatibility: This detailing set is specifically designed for a particular model kit. Always verify the product label and your model kit's instructions to ensure compatibility before purchasing. Using this set with an incompatible model may result in fitment issues.
