Upgrade pack for the Westland Wyvern S.MK 4 in 1:48

The Westland Wyvern S.MK 4 is a striking post-war naval strike aircraft with a complex profile. Trumpeter's photo etched kit for this subject supplies six frets of etched brass to add precise, thin-scale components to your 1:48 model.

Improving panel work and small fittings

Photo etch is ideal for reproducing fine vents, grills and cockpit details that plastic struggles to achieve. The Trumpeter frets offer parts that significantly sharpen small details and panel edges for more convincing results.

Practical tips for fitting and finishing

Working with etched brass rewards careful cutting, filing and gluing techniques; a patient approach gives the best results. After installation and paint, the metal components enhance the model's authenticity and presentation quality.

Experience with small-scale assemblies, steady hand control and familiarity with cyanoacrylate glues make fitting etched parts much easier and reduce the chance of damage.
Yes, etched brass parts are thin and can bend or warp if handled roughly. Use fine tweezers and a soft workspace to avoid kinks and scratches.
When fitted cleanly and painted well, the brass details create sharper scale realism that is noticeable on close inspection and under display lighting.
