Sonic_Talon Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Hi, Does anyone know if there is aftermarket resin to convert a 1/48 Academy Su-27 into a Su-30 (with forward carnards) What about cannabalising parts from other model kits? Sonic_Talon :( Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flankerman Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Hi,Does anyone know if there is aftermarket resin to convert a 1/48 Academy Su-27 into a Su-30 (with forward carnards) What about cannabalising parts from other model kits? Sonic_Talon :) The only one that WAS available (AFAIK) is the SOL conversion set - sadly no longer in production. I'm doing a conversion in 1:72 scale to turn a Heller Su-27UB into a Su-30MKI & MKM. See:- http://www.arcforums.com/forums/air/index....amp;hl=Su-30MKM It isn't too difficult - plastic card & filler for the canards, scratchbuilt twin nosewheel, altered nozzles with TVC etc. I assume you are contemplating a Su-30MKI or M ?? (as they are the only ones with canards) Ken Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FlyingSnowmew Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 (edited) Yep, SOL made conversion sets for the Su-30/33/35/37, but you are S.O.L. if you want to get your hands on one of them. Edited July 24, 2007 by Forseti42 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sonic_Talon Posted July 25, 2007 Author Share Posted July 25, 2007 Thanks for the tip.... Look forward to seeing your completed kit as reference for my conversion build too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
