Spitfire Mk XIVc Conversion 

So we will have two Mk. XIV's. Nice! I already place my bet on the second one.

I never fail to be amazed by your work; it’s always a pleasure to watch and learn from you. I look forward to the next episode. Thanks.

You always make it look so easy in your calculated approaches, and thank you for the dual pronunciation of aluminium!

As always . simple, straight forward & to the point. Thank you.very instructive

Looking really good Paul

Imaginative yet very systematic and thorough job of conversion Dr. Budzick. Would have expected no less from you. I appreciate your sharing this procedure to push us to think about better ways to do conversions preserving accuracy and detail in the process. I would have just started sawing at panel lines to try to mate up the constituent parts and then try to make the resulting Frankenstein look acceptable by smoothing the joins and restoring surface details. Your approach would seem to preserve dimensional fidelity and accuracy. I look forward to the finished product. Thank you.

Thanks so much for this video Paul! Used several of your tips and techniques in doing a Mk.XIVe from the Eduard Mk.VIII and Airfix FR Mk.XIV, and it worked out great (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iGe2aysykQI.html). Wouldn't have had the courage to attempt the kit bash (especially as my first kit bash) without your videos! :-)

I don't even dabble with scale models anymore, but you're video's have tempted me.

wow that attention of detail

Thank you for sharing another great video. Do you plan to re-enable the option to message you through your website some time in the future? I have a modelling question I could really use your help with. Either way, I really appreciate the work you put into your videos. They're absolutely top notch. I've learned so much since finding your channel a few weeks ago.

Another excellent video thanks Paul 👍

Great video from the absolute master! I guess the same mod can be done with an Eduard Mk. XVI bubble top to get a much better model. I want a Mk. XVIII that served in Palestina and Egybt as a counterpart to the Mk.IXe Velvetta of the IAF.

I worked on a model that needed a lot of scratch work. I had it sitting around since 1970 but never built. Once I started to get into it I knew why what a mess. But my model of the K-61-1 came out great just took a lot of scratch work. I was always afraid to do this until I watched your video a few times before I decided to bite into my model.

I build only cars and love to modify them a lot, but I always get something out of your videos. What a great inspiration .... thank you for sharing.

Magnificent!

As ever...Excellent work and a joy to watch👍

Doc, you are also an artist and master fabricator! thanks for the video Richaed

Really nice and neat, great inspirational work all the best from the UK " home of the spit"

superb

I always look forward to your amazing and informative produced videos 😎

Excellent build, Paul. I was toying with the idea of using an ICM kit as a donor but overtrees are so affordable and have much better details.

Thanks a lot for the video, you inspire me to not build things out of the box and bite the bullet doing modifications that I’m not sure if they are going to work, but they are very satisfying when they do (^_^)

I don't do plastic kits or even model planes at all, but I learn so much simply by carefully watching your approach to modelling. Great video once again!

I'm enjoying this series a lot. Very impressed with your conversion work and I'm looking forward to seeing the finished builds.

Wonderful..so glad I found your channel

I never tire of your videos. Great job.🙏

Another in a long line of great videos, Paul! You really do do amazing work!

It's always a pleasure to watch your videos. ;)

Interesting, I always wondered why the thrust line on the XIV pointed downwards.

Brilliant conversion, really enjoying this series.

Can’t wait to see the next video

another very enjoyable and informative, Paul. Thanks once again!

Love this series. So many neat ideas and techniques being shown. You pulled the Air Fix model back from paint mule status and that isnt easy! Looking forward to the next video in the series.

Fantastic work.

Pure genius

Very nice and useful .Thanks so much.

uh!

Hey, there’s 50 of them, oiled, wrapped, an buried in the Pacific islands. Remember that ?

I noticed the power tool you are using for the cutting isn't the Dremel Stylo you reviewed some time ago. What power tool are you using now?
