Here’s a neat little accessory I
picked up from Accurate Armour, Carbon fibre aerials. These are a
great solution for how to do aerials on AFVs. Whilst some kits do
contain an attempt at aerials most don’t, and in those that do they
look way over scale.
Accurate Armour supplies five 100mm
lengths of 0.25mm carbon fibre rod. That’s enough for five 2 metre
and five 1 metre aerials in 1/35 (more in 1/48).
The carbon is pretty bendy and
would be great for use on modern AFVs with “whip” type aerials that
are bent over and tied down.

I used one of mine on a Sherman,
attaching it with just a spot of super-fast Superglue. Simplicity
itself!
This is a nice product that can add
the finishing touch to your model. I bought mine direct from AA and
paid £4.95 + P&P.
