Using "Rainbow" etch on Revell 1/700 Titanic?

[Killingholme]

Hi all,

 

Surprisingly, I can't find an etch set dedicated to Revell's 1:700 Titanic/Olympic kit. Has anyone had any experience for using the Rainbow set that is intended to fit the Academy kit? I know all the free standing components will work out fine, but I was wondering whether something like the structural pieces such as bridge wings or deckhouses might work on the Revell kit without a lot of fettling?

 

Anyone tried it?

Not tried the Rainbow set or seen it, but Toms Modelworks do sets specific for the Revell kit which I have. Master do a nice set of more to scale masts, and there's wooden decks from Artwox and Woodhunter for the Revell kits if that sort of thing takes your fancy.

Thanks Dave,

 

That's good to know. The only reason I asked about the Rainbow set is because it provides etched bridge wings, navigating bridge, and docking bridge- which I think would have a really big impact on a small scale model like this.
