Spey Phantom intake and exhaust parts for 1/32 scale Tamiya conversion
PLEASE NOTE THIS IS NOT A FULL CONVERSION
This set was released in limited numbers back in October 2021, but due to some renewed interest Kerry an I have decided to re-release the set for those that missed out on the first run. These will now be continually available here on my website.
See the links for a further additional small set of parts that have been developed since the first release. https://aerocraftmodels.bigcartel.com/product/mcdonnell-douglas-f-4-k-m-additional-small-parts-for-tamiya-j-kit
Also see my other sets for the Phantom, a replacement canopy set and a set of brass cast undercarriage.
A little background to the set and a link to the current build.
I have been fortunate to be involved to a small extent and now to a much larger extent on making these parts available to modellers that either have the Cutting Edge conversion or who are prepared to do a fair bit of kit bashing them selves, to produce a BRITISH PHANTOM from the Tamiya F-4J Phantom kit.
This project has mainly been driven by the talented modeller Anthony Galbraith, who is doing a mammoth build on Large Scale Planes, see the link here https://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.php?/topic/86105-raf-fg1-xv571-wild-hare-phantom-conversion/
The next important person in the chain is the CAD designer Kerry Carlyle, who got on board as a favour to help Anthony out with some of the tricky parts and that would be impossible to design with this amount of detail by good ‘old’ modelling methods.
The other important person who brought Anthony, Kerry and myself together is Rick Godden, so that completed the team. However as you will see on the LSP thread above there have been quite a few others guys that have chipped in with information and pictures to assist.
Kerry has invested a lot of hours in developing and reworking the set in conjunction with Anthony, and it is to that end that Kerry would also like to see some return financially for all his hard work.
Supporting this set will benefit Kerry at this time.
As many of you will know I was planning this conversion a few years ago, then we got promised a full kit, and although that may still happen……one day this may still work out the best way to get some of the best detailed parts for the Spey.
Please allow up to 3-4 weeks for manufacturing. I will email as soon as I have shipped the parts.
