Conversions for Revell Spitfire IIa to a Vb and Vc

Anyone seen these in the flesh or used them?

 

Funny no reviews here - I would have thought it would be the obvious place

 

There is no canopy replacement, so you are limited to 'early' Vbs

 

I never realised the Vc had MkI / II style canopy

 

Anyway, interested in people's experiences

 

Kind regards

Never heard of them Nick.....wonder what the oil cooler is like if they do one

 

 

Nick is referring to this one ... I think? ...

Lumps and bumps supplied, spinner and props ... but no wing cannon, or at least none shown - so you'll have to go via Master/RB/Aber for those.

 

No oil cooler ... but then no need - as the Revell Mk.IIa is closer to the Mk.Va to start with ... If you want to fix the radiator ('ramp' style) you're probably going to need to get the Barracuda gear anyway.

Yes Rog those are the ones

 

The build threads are by the same guy from Real Model who answered my questions I believe

 

The Vc with an early screen is like rocking horse *you know what*, but the Vb is much easier to find

 

Fundekals excellent Spitfire sheet has Eric Lock's plane for instance...
