For Fokkers sake...nice vid Nigel...will that engine work for the Early or is it aligned w/Mid?
As far as I know all Mk I‘s had the same engine.
I'm not sure Wes?? I'll pin this so everyone sees it, someone will know.
Dear Nigel,
I wondered when someone would produce an engine for those with an interest. It is good to see that they appears to have done it justice.
And, yes- Kotare do have the best Spitfire model on the market!
Excellent review!!

Z
Thanks Zin Zan
Hopefully Nige the gun bays will be on the way soon for you to review.
They are Phil!!
Wow, a beautiful model of the Merlin but this would be a serious challenge for me at this time. 😍😍
Might get this for my Kotare spit Nige I’ll look into it
I wonder how to remove the supports on tiny parts as the 0.4 line? A hot knife/blade? This set is a miracle to look at, just superb! Thanks for showing, Nigel!
Nippers i think.. the heat near that tiny part may damage it.
Beautiful but way above my abilities.😊
Is that Kotare going to get on the bench anytime soon?
I would hope so, but I have too much on the go right now.
I ordered the 1/32 Mk1a Kotare Spitfire, what P-E set, cockpit set would you recommend!
OOB Paul.
OOB? Out of Box? Is it that good with extra “stuff”?
Yep, maybe get some belts from HGW?
Thanks!!!
@@NigelsModellingBench Sorry, HGW?
A beautiful rendition of the mighty Merlin. Will the cowling panels fit over it or is it underscale?
Many thanks Nigel!!❤
Here is some feedback:
1. the engine/framing is the same scale as the cowlings. Actually I am not quite sure if it is actually underscale. I think I hadn’t had any issues regarding the scale during the design process. I worked on it with mostly original drawings. Maybe that underscale theory is actually about the difference in length between a single stage and two-stage Merlin engine?
2. the exhaust parts (styrene and resin) will also fit into the framing
3. actually it won’t fit the Lancaster as the Lancaster had a two-stage supercharger Merlin and the Spitfire Mk I single stage.
My set is the only 1/32 single stage Merlin available as far as I know.
Thanks again Nigel, your next delivery is soon ready. Keep up the good quality of your work, and your feedback is very essential for me.

Dear FMC,
This looks excellent- I have a Mk 1 early that might look very good with this upgrade.
Regards,
Z
@@ZinzanModelling I would love to welcome you as a new customer :)
I don't think they will John, certainly not as moulded? They will need some serious thinning down.
Just a comment on your comment about losing subs I’m also losing watch hours, I’ve lost 8 hours of watch time in the last day
I've had that before.. seems impossible!!
@@NigelsModellingBench very true , I don’t think it wants me to get to 4000 hrs
