1/72 Airfix Vampire - SA Air Force

[Guest]

Hi all,

As part of a commission of 5 South African Air Force (SAAF) aircraft, I've started work on the sweet little Airfix Vampire T.11.

Humbrol Orange followed by Alclad Aluminium

The model has now been sealed with a satin coat, awaiting my SAAF decals to arrive.

Hope you all like it.

That's really nice Quintin, you've got very good paintwork on that little one.

The lager bottle is an essential extra!

Cheers

Thanks guys. I must say it's a very nice little kit and everything falls into place nicely.

Now I'm just waiting for my SAAF decals to arrive.

Will keep the progress pics coming.

Hey Theuns,

I ordered them from Zane Jacobs from MAV Decals in PE (www.mavdecals.co.za).

I'm expecting them this week, will report back on the print quality for you.
