Hello

 

Here are my last three builds with these Special Hobby 1/72 De Havilland Vampires:

The first two models and decorations came from the Special Hobby SH7238 & SH72339 boxes. The third came from the decal sheet AztecModels 72-041, even if the model is the reference SH72279.

Bonsoir Patrick,

 

Superb paint schemes, and as usual great builds.

This is a very eclectic threesome.

 

Congratulations.

Beautiful Vampires! The colourdul Mexican livery is really someting special!

 

The Swedish J 28A belonged to 1. Division (corresponding to an RAF Squadron) of the F 13 Wing (Flottilj in Swedish), the first Swedish Air Force unit equipped with the Vampire in 1946.

 

Kind regards,

 

Joachim

Lovely trio of vampires, your paintwork is excellent (especially on the Mexican version). 

Hello

Thank you very much. On the Mexican one it was easier to paint the red stripes.
