Yes, I've seen those. It looks as if someone has taken over the old Moskit line of exhausts, or else figured out how he did manufactured them.

Very impressive, hopefully the manufacturer will see a market in 1:32. Has anyone got any of these, are they as good as they look?

It's the old Moskit exhaust, isn't it?

They really are marvellous things, I've no idea how they are manufactured but they look like a full size exhaust has simply been shrunk down.

Moskit did loads of different types in 1/32, so I expect it will not be long before they start appearing in that scale.

Happy days!

Lance, I've got some of the old Moskit exhausts, but in 1/72nd. These appear to be the same thing, and if so, you will like them. I will say though that in the larger scale, and with round exhausts, the same effect can be done with a drill and paint/weathering,  . . . just depends on how your time vs. money vs. talent scale is running.  The beauty of the old Moskit exhausts were with square exhausts such as found on Bf One-oh-thingees, etc. ;)   The real advantage for us and our area and era of interest is going to be with exhausts for things such as SPAD's, etc.

I tend to agree with your cut on them Warren. I have not (to date) had a problem with hollowing out the usually single/combined outlet on our subjects and having just spent a fair $ on some Alclad supplies I believe the painting aspect will be even better. Still...fascinating and pretty to look at.

saw those at modelsua while back. they clain to be made from some unique process if i'm not mistaken. i have see similar exhaust to this made for 1/35 armor models. they are very delicately formrd and look very nice.
