1/48 Classic Airframes Vampire & Venom kit question
WildeSau75 replied to WildeSau75's topic in Cold War
Agree - had the luck to get the CA kit lately - from a very nice BM seller - Nick Belbin. And don't understand either why no one does an after market nose. Hope you will find one soon. Cheers, Michael -

1/48 Classic Airframes Vampire & Venom kit question
WildeSau75 replied to WildeSau75's topic in Cold War
It is part of the 1/48 Classic Airframes Vampire FB5/FB6 kit. Special Hobby is planning to release an 1/72 kit of the Vampire FB6 - also with the Pinocchio nose. And the 1/48 Alley Cat Vampire FB6 kit does include the Pinocchio nose as well. Hope that helps. Cheers, Michael -
Looks great - especially the wheels. Good to see one in a different livery. Cheers, Michael

Indeed the Swiss Vampires & Venoms are cool birds. That airfield could easily have been Matt close to Interlaken where Vampires, Venoms, Hunters & F5 Tigers were stationed. Glad you had the opportunity to see them :-). Cheers, Michael

1/48 Classic Airframes Vampire & Venom kit question
WildeSau75 replied to WildeSau75's topic in Cold War
Ha Wez - good to "see" you mate. No, we not want again to have that debate - we all know that at the end the surgical intervention - giving it a new nose - does make these ladies - aka Venoms & Vampires - a sexier look :-). thanks - will definitely give it a try. We just can hope that soon one will come up with a 1/72 Venom. Cheers, Michael -
Hi guys, I got the 1/48 Classic Airframes Vampire FB5/FB6 kit with the "Pinocchio nose" (Swiss air force version). I got as well the Venom FB1 kit from Classic Airframes. My question: would it be possible to use the "Pinocchio nose" of the Vampire kit and use it in the Venom kit without making too much of a surgery. The Swiss air force Venoms too were fitted later with this special nose. Since I want to build the Vampire my uncle flew - before they got their new noses, I want to use the new nose on the Venom when ever possible. Think it gives the plane quite a good look. TIA. Cheers, Michael
