SOW gear sets... WOW!

[seiran01]

I was looking over my SOW gear sets this morning, the first two I ordered that arrived a week or two ago and got pushed aside with the craziness of life.  In one word, all I can say is WOW! I bought the gear for the Trumpy P-38 and the Revell Ju-88, and man oh man, what an improvement they are.

Looking forward to getting my hands on additional sets soon, seeing the Skyhawks are on the way I'll be grabbing a few of those  

 

Thanks Damian!!

SOW = Synthetic Ordenance Works

in other words the company who makes these sets - they got their own section in the sponsors forum sections

Agreed! Absolutely fantastic stuff, makes SAC look like a joke. And better than G-Factor, too, IMO.

The main thing for me about DBs sets in there is NO need to paint any oleos any more!

Painted oleo struts really look poor IMHO, and the SOW sets really do away with that need, and you get the added bonus of the strength of hardened wire inside.

I'll be glad to jump on this bandwagon. I have a few sets now too, and they're all excellent. You can be confident that Damian does them right.

Another avid supporter here, Damian's sets are outstanding!

One more supporter here - SOW landing gear are the bees-knees.

I have a few SOW undercarriage sets and I agree that they are superb. A great idea, a great product.

I'll second that. Chrome paint just looks like paint.

I always use foil on my oleos, looks better then paint. 

I havent tried SOW yet but time will come soon.

Im a big foil guy too.............but a lot of the time the oleos are so small, or so thin, foil really doesn't work well, so this is really welcome IMHO.

You won't regret it.

I have to agree  with all of the above as I've obtained a few examples myself. Nothing else out there compares. Neat, clean, and very accurate.
