Upgrade the turret storage buckets with fine photo-etched mesh

Model builders aiming for closer scale accuracy on a 1/35 Leopard 2 A5 or A6 will find these Tamiya parts replace the kit's coarse netting with delicate stainless-steel etchings. The parts are shaped to represent the storage buckets at the rear of the turret more faithfully.

Stainless construction for real-world resilience

The stainless-steel manufacture gives these parts a longer service life and better edge definition than many brass or plastic alternatives. The thin sheet makes it easy to form around the bucket frames so the mesh sits neatly and looks correctly tensioned at scale.

Quick to fit, tidy in appearance

These items are suited to modellers who want a visible upgrade without complex conversions. They require simple cutting and gluing, producing a neat, professional look on modern armoured models and display pieces.

No advanced skills are required, but steady hands help. Cut the parts from their fret carefully, bend with fine pliers and glue with a small amount of adhesive for the best fit.
Stainless steel offers good resistance to tarnish and corrosion under normal indoor display conditions. Standard modelling paints and sealers will also help protect the finish.
Yes. After priming, you can use washes, pigments and oils to weather the mesh so it matches the rest of your model's finish.
