I have to say, it doesn't look bad this way!
The "VA extension" makes it looks surprisingly different from the ordinary AC 500 jib.

One tip: to make it look even more like an AC 1000, add 1 or 2 extra pendants under the luffer. The original usually has very long pendants there,
as seen in the first "real jib" pic you posted Smile

yea i know it uses more pendants on the bridle but since i have the ycc pendants for the jib, it doesnt come with spares. if i still had the old pendants on, i could easily make it work

No but you haven't used all of them now... the YCC set has the same total length of pendants as Conrad.
So at least the pendants for those jib sections that you now use for the VA, are now free to use Smile

If anyone right now still wants an AC500 jib, world-of-modells on ebay has several of these at very reasonable retail price:

Seller only got one set left. He had 4 total earlier today. Better get this last one if you still want one
