Ok, is there a place on the web where I can find out where these extra PE Parts go on a model? I bought 2 Dragon Elephant kits, one with Zimmerit, they use the same PE sprue. One kit uses some of the PE , the other doesn't , but I'm left with a bunch of extra PE Parts that I have no idea where they go or what they are for. If I knew , I could use them on other kits.
Hope you understand what I mean.

As a regular builder of Dragon kits, I think you will find that the etched brass they produce is on the basis that some of the parts will fit a lot of kits (obviously different ones for different kits) - that way they don't have to make specific etched brass sets for each kit.

I doubt that anybody could tell you what kit the left over bits are meant for. Dragon kits are the best source around for filling spares boxes. I recently built an M4 Normandy Sherman and had over 200 parts left over when I had finished!

I would suggest put the left over parts in the spares box and don't worry about it - you will use them one day.

Regards

Rob
