Resin Prop Aftermark

Post by sheppsea »

Evening Gentleman (at least it is here in the UK!)

I am about to embark on a Spitfire build and have a variety of aftermarket for it, but I just saw that resin replacements for the propellers are available but the problem is that I can't see much different between the resin and what is in the kit

Does anyone know what resin propellers offer above the kit parts? Is it a case of details not showing up on the photo? The other difference I could think of is the ship and I not injection parts can be a little thick, so maybe the resin is thinner?

The difference between kit & resin props can be subtle, shape length and thickness. It's up to you as to whether you think difference is worth the £££

Thank - I suspected that might be the case; its a shame there isn't a model shop near me so I can go and do a proper comparison.

I think I will give them a go - I can alway resell them on eBay to minimuse the loss if I don't think they're worth the cost ! :)
