As the age old saying goes, you can never have too many Spitfires!

I am really looking forward to this project. I really like the Griffon engined Spitfires.

Yes, the 3D printed parts really do look nice and you have previously explained your position on expense, quality and value in kits. I would respectfully make the point that the shipped price of the conversion is approximately equal (from where I am located) to the shipped price of the Tamiya donor kit and that the builder/converter will be forgoing a detailed Merlin in the Mk. IX kit for an empty Griffon nose in the conversion. I guess you must *really* want a 1/32 Mk. XII, but again, beautifully printed.

I'm more than happy to bin the Merlin, I don't usually like exposed engines which is why I'm pleased that Kotare didn't include one. It's a shame that postage is so expensive where you are, but as I have said before, if you want one, and are prepared to pay for it then get it, if you can't afford it then that's a shame, I can't afford a new Aston Martin!

Looks a great set, with inventive ideas too! Nice. I have done plenty of resin AM, but not a 'kit-bash' of AM to change a kit. Gonna have to consider it one day... Thx for the review Jamie.

I was all up for one of these conversions then DBMK announced their MkXIV and Seafire mkxvii so I've decided to wait

You'll be waiting a long time and with all due respect to DBMK they won't get anywhere near Tamiya quality!

I have just finished the Mk14 conversion last month. They are amazing and so easy to fit (with experience) I look forward to seeing what you do with this one mate.

Those mask are nice but that vinyl will shrink over time.
