Hi
Is it me or does this set, excluding the PE parts look strikingly like the Miniart kit of the same name, even down to the lamposts
Set number 35007.
That is unless there is a slight misunderstanding and the set is a PE set to enhance the Miniart set. If not I don't think Miniart will be very happy.

Ouch! As far as I can tell, the lamposts aren't included in the set and the design of the fencing is pretty different. However... the stone pillars look remarkably similar.
I'll e-mail my contact at MiniArt and see what they think...

Looking at it again, it SEEMS that it's an Update set for the MiniArt set. Unfortunately, ET's website has the minimum of information in English. I think at the moment i'll call it as an 'Update Set' for MiniArt's 35007 and take it from there...
Thanks for pointing that out...

I've now called it as 'Update Set for MiniArt 35007' as thanks to Alan's observations, that is exactly what it appears to be...

Ahh, at the 2nd sight, I also think, that the etched parts are the update-set, so MiniArt seems to use plastic parts only.
greetings...
edit: I see, that the mistake was cleared.
Thanks, ETMODEL. ;-)
The very fragile metal-parts looks better, than made in plastic. But, perhaps they a bit undersized in thickness?

While the ETmodel railings are a nicer style than the Miniart I think PSE is too flat to depict wrought iron railings and gates.
