I got (I thing the last one ever...) the spinner and props for the IX...the heritage Kit is too exp...

 

What about the  exhausts for the Mosquito?

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.

How I extended the nose...

Further to my last, an abbreviated narrative of my build can be found here in LSP. See https://www.largescaleplanes.com/articles/article.php?aid=667

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!

wow, many thanks, it saved my day!

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 ?

this is another point. I have the Trump. Vb Kit. 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)

There's a very nice WIP / Mk IX conversion(unfortunately not finished) by JCote in the "works in progress" section. Don't know how to post a link with my cell phone, but the title is : Airfix 1/24 Spitfire.
