PHOTO ETCHED PARTS NOTE:

This kit contains photo etched parts for added realism. use a sharp knife to remove the parts from their tree and cut against a hard surface like a piece of glass. Stick
a piece of tape to the back of the photo etch tree so the parts don't fly off and get lost. Carefully sand the photo etch pieces to remove any remnants of their mounting
points. To attach the photo etched pieces to your model, use a toothpick or piece of wire to apply a small amount of CA superglue, two-part epoxy, or clear enamel
paint to your model. Then the photo etched pieces can be put into place using tweezers or a toothpick dipped in candle wax.
