Grizly 255 Posted June 18, 2019 When I built my 1/24 Mk.IXc, I used/modified the exhausts from the Airfix Stuka kit. The build was the subject of a two part article in the Nov & Dec 1996 issues of Scale Models International. The following are two photos of my model and the last page of the article which lists the parts used. 2 Pascal and Menelaos reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think so...I ordered it now Hi Menelaos, the very same 3D-printed Mustang exhausts are also available in gray resin directly from Model Monkey (click here). Grey resin is smoother. I am the designer. Cheers! - Steve Larsen Edited June 20, 2019 by Model_Monkey Photos added. 2 Out2gtcha and Menelaos reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pascal 659 Posted June 20, 2019 Interesting topic. Can the windscreen and canopy of the Airfix 1/24 Mk Vb kit be used for a Mk IX ? I have an Airfix 1/24 Mk Ia, but I think the canopy from that kit might not be correct for a Mk IX ? Sincerely Pascal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As far as I know for the early IXs the canopy was the same. The front part had in later models no outer armor glas (but intern) 1 Pascal reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
