Quote from: Wardukw on February 12, 2025, 07:45:38 PMWell my Revell 1/60th scale Cutless came in mail today and yep ..there's going to be quite a few mods to convert this into 48th ..lengthened..widening the fuselage including its depth ..wingspan increased in lenght and width and a full scoped out cockpit  ;D
Oh I'm changing out the landing gear too ...Skyhawk might work .

I have a spare Aires 1/48 F-105G (2-seater) resin cockpit upgrade set, if you want it - complete cockpit including bang-seats & instrument panels (it's for the Monogram kit, but I have the Hobby Boss kit - & the Aires cockpit to go with it - so it's surplus to requirements).
Oh yes please very muchly thank you dude 😁😁😁
That's the cockpit well sorted 👌 👍
And being Aires ill be very nice 😌 🙂
Ohhhh a two seat Cutlass ???? 😳

I been doing some hunting mate ..measurements.
This 1/60th one is 216mm long and had a 203mm wingspan ...the 1/48th is 260mm long and has a wingspan 254mm ...with that cockpit from you 😍 👌  the 44mm will be easy to graft into it..ive gotta cut the fuselage into 3 separate pieces to increase overall lenght ..now it's gonna be even longer  :thumbsup:
The wings ..oh man 😊 😊
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .
