Precision stainless mesh to sharpen your Leopard 2 A5/6 build

For modelers who want to boost authenticity on a 1/35 Leopard 2 A5 or A6, these Tamiya photo-etched parts replace the kit mesh with finely worked stainless components. They recreate the storage buckets on the rear of the turret with better scale texture than the original plastic netting.

Durable material with crisp scale detail

Produced in stainless steel, the etched pieces offer stronger wear resistance than brass or plastic and keep sharper edges at small scale. Their slim profile makes it simple to bend and fit the mesh snugly around the bucket frame, improving the overall visual crispness of the model.

Straightforward fitting for clean results

Installation is accessible for hobbyists of varying experience: the items can be trimmed, formed and glued into place without complex surgery. They are a practical upgrade for display models and modern armour collections.

A sharp hobby knife, fine tweezers, small bending pliers and a cyanoacrylate or plastic-safe adhesive are the essentials. A fine file or sanding stick helps remove attachment tabs cleanly.
Yes. Stainless steel accepts primers and paints used for scale modelling. Apply a suitable primer first, then your chosen paints and weathering techniques for realistic finish and patina.
