About Master Model:
Master Model is a Polish company specialized in producing high quality metal turned barrels and metal accessories for scale model aircraft, ships and armor. They have a wide selection of brass barrels, pitot tubes and radar aerial assemblies in various scales. The company is owned by Piotr Czerkasow, a mechanical engineer who created Master Model with a passion for making perfect models that are true reflection of real originals. The accuracy and level of detail result in a superb realistic model.
One area where injection molded plastic struggles to provide detail and scale thickness are the Pitots found on most jets, in particular ones having unusual elements present. Master Model have made one of their tasks to provide these items in resin and metal. The finesse and detail level of these parts can only be dreamt of in injection molded plastic. Having no clean up required is an added bonus to reduced risk of damage to the finish of the parts, as they are less likely to be broken.
