Building a Custom Airfix Sea Vampire T.22 in 1/72 Scale. Converting a Vampire T.11 - Build & Review!

Video Description

The Sea Vampire T.22 was a first-generation jet fighter training aircraft that would see use with the Royal Navy. It was a development of the de Havilland Vampire and used to develop the skills of pilots before flying solo or moving onto more advanced types. Join me on the workbench in this video as I convert the Airfix de Havilland Vampire T.11 plastic model kit (A68225 gift set) into a navalised Sea Venom T.22 using some aftermarket transfers from Xtradecals. I round off the video with a review, taking into account the quality of the base model and make an assessment on my process for completing the kit. For a deeper dive inside the box of this kit to see the instructions, plastic sprues, decals and other accessories (such as cement, brush and paints featured in the gift set) check out the dedicated unboxing video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vy3pKOPcEQY Compare this build with my original attempt of the Vampire starter set from 2016 here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J72wtZTfqaw Thanks to CT Scale Models for providing a review sample of their mask set for this kit - take a look at their product here: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/395988996491 Chapters: 00:00 Main build 10:00 Painting 11:27 Decals 13:55 Finishing touches 07:14 Review 🤝 Don't forget you can help support charity by sending any Airfix Flying Hours or un-started kits and supplies to Models For Heroes: https://www.modelsforheroes.org.uk/ 🔥 Welcome to the Model Minutes Community! 🔥 Are you ready to take your scale modelling skills to the next level?
