Brass Parts and Build Quality

This set contains 27 brass parts in four types, supplying fine metal fittings that replace or augment kit plastic. The precision of the components helps reproduce delicate features on decks and superstructures, making them suitable for experienced hobbyists aiming for improved realism.

Yes, the Trumpeter 06601 components are made to align with the 1:350 HMS Hood kit geometry; minor trimming or test-fitting may be needed for a perfect join.
Use fine files, fine-grit sandpaper, small pliers and CA or epoxy adhesives made for metal-to-plastic bonding. A magnifier and steady clamps help when handling tiny pieces.
Clean parts with isopropyl alcohol, lightly scuff the metal for better paint adhesion, prime with a metal-capable primer, then topcoat with enamel or acrylic paints as preferred.
