AndrewE Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Finished this a couple of weeks ago. Straight from the box except for as few additional details added to the cockpit and I filled in all of the panel lines with milliput. I seem to have had a lot more fit problems with this build than others appear to have done, the top wing was dictinctly warped and took alot of twisting and cutting to get everything lined up to my satisfaction. Paint is Aluminium Alclad and International Orange from the Xtracolor range. There is certainly some very nice detail in the kit and makes a nice pair with the previously released Gnat. The single seat Vampire is a rescribed Heller kit with markings from a Euro decals sheet. Andrew 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire31 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Inspiring builds! The filled in panel lines contribute to a 1:48th impression. Top marks! Kind regrads, Joachim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sean Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Cool build, like it very much, and certainly sits well as a pair with the Gnat. Sean 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heloman1 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Very nice indeed Andrew, I think we have all had our share of build problems with this kit, maybe we were all trying to be too clever! I love the finish you have achieved and see the finish you have achieved by filling the panel lines. Congratulations. Colin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
