Upgrade your Cromwell with accurate metal grilles

The Tamiya 35222 1/35 Cromwell Tank Photo-etched Grille Set supplies finely etched metal parts to replace the kit grilles and raise the level of detail on your build. These parts are tailored to the Cromwell's layout and add convincing texture to vulnerable panels.

Sharper detail than plastic components

Photo-etched metal yields thinner, crisper features that read correctly at 1/35 scale. Using this Tamiya set allows modellers to replicate the Cromwell's grille patterns and enhance visible engine bay and exhaust areas.

Why hobbyists fit photo-etch upgrades

Modellers choose photo-etch to gain definition in small parts without heavy scratchbuilding. The Tamiya grilles provide historically accurate meshwork and improve the finished appearance with minimal alteration to the base kit.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Material: photo-etched metal
  • Assembly: glue required
  • Compatible with: Tamiya Cromwell Tank kit
A fast-setting cyanoacrylate is commonly used, or a specialised photo-etch adhesive. Avoid solvent glues that are meant for plastic only.
Use a sharp blade or fine flush cutters and support the part to prevent bending. Light filing will remove any remaining tabs cleanly.
The mesh is delicate, so use tweezers and minimal force when shaping or fitting. Gentle bending tools or small pliers help keep parts straight.
