Monroe Perdu Studios has been working on new kits that are unique and varied in subject matter. The items that Monroe Perdu Studios are releasing news of are a mix of scales, but an interesting mix.
Laser etched zimmerit sheet for Stug III
This set of checkered pattern MIAG factory zimmerit has been designed to fit Tamiya kits, specifically kit #35197 but with little or no modification, it should work very well on Dragon kits also.

Laser cut side skirts for Stug III
These laser cut paper side skirts are superior replacements to plastic kit parts. They are also superior to metal etch parts as the dull silver metallic finish requires no prepping, priming or soldering. Easily manipulated to indicate battle damage, the paper can be painted and stained with any medium and the parts attach to the plastic kit using white glue (PVA). These side skirts will fit model kits manufactured by Tamiya and Dragon.

Kneeler
Available in 1/16 and 1/32 scale
This complete laser cut kit can be easily glued together using white glue (PVA) with no special tools needed. It can be colored with any type of paint.
The 1/16 scale kit contains one kneeler.
This 1/32 - 1/35 scale kit contains two kneelers.

Lifeguard Tower
This laser cut kit is the first in a series of Lifeguard Towers and Stands in various locales. The scale is compatible with 1/32"-1/35" figures, structures and vehicles. This is a relatively simple structure design that is very versatile and is certainly not limited to use as a Lifeguard Station. The raised platform can act as a photo stand at a race course for instance. Any setting where someone would want to see above tall grass or swamp, or would want to look out over a large collection area as examples.

The booth can be used as a stand-alone ticket booth, information kiosk, guard shack. The design, materials and construction of the subject is fairly universal, so the kit is not necessarily tied to a particular time or place.

Everything needed to build this kit is provided, including metal wire lengths for the handrails, full color printed beach warning sign and water transfers for all the markings on the structure.

Monroe Perdu can really come up with interesting items. The zimmerit & side skirts look useful. And I can imagine a number of uses in dios for that tower/shack.

I guess the lifeguard tower goes well with the Bay Watch babe figures? LINK
