Very realistic, and way cool...these are an ideal addition (and I do have a 1/35 LCM waiting to be built in the stash!)...definitely a must! Thanks for posting, Jim!

Hi Jim

Thanks for sharing with us
I think these products will enhance the realism in the models - and we already have seen what some modelers can do with a plastic fender
