Bjorn Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 The "Vampire over the Northern skies" edition built as a Swedish J 28B from F 11 wing. Built mostly OOB apart from the intakes that were slightly modified. Since they are corrected in the F.3 version, this would be a better model for a Swedish one, but was not available when I started this build. Some decals were replaced, the national insignias were too dark blue, and the griffin at the nose that should be on a gold background, not yellow. A nice kit, fit is good and the panel lines are not too obvious - although they of course are too visible since they are almost invisible on the real thing. An enjoyable and pretty easy build, a model that i definitely recommended for all us twin-boom lovers! :-) 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VG 33 Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 This is very nice and useful as I am to build a couple of French SH Vampires. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
