NOTES:

Etched Metal

This latest Lion Roar set is for a 1/35 Motorcycle. The Tamiya JGSDF XLR 250 to be exact. As with other etched motorcycle sets, it has a considerable number of small  and fragile parts so will require some care in use. There is a replacement chain assembly, new wire wheel inserts, side panels for the engine, mirrors,  hand protectors, a rack for the rear and a number of other bits and pieces.

The double sided instruction page provides excellent drawings and a complete construction sequence. In addition to the construction drawings Lion Roar has several close-up shots of the unpainted bike with the etched brass in place so you can help determine if you got it right.

For those wanting to get a bit more involved into doing etched brass, this would be an excellent set with which to begin.
