Continuing my air display team scale model builds … today it’s the turn of the “Telstars”, the aerobatic display team of the Royal Australian Air Force, which between 1963 and 1967 flew the De Havilland Vampire T.11 advanced jet trainer, the predecessor to the Folland Gnat as later used by the RAF’s Red Arrows.
Airfix have created an excellent kit here as one of their Starter Sets, with so much detail and good fitting parts for the price. I used Vallejo paints and sourced their day-glow orange for the nose and tail; the most challenging paint I’ve come across, in that it seems determined to give an orange peel finish by default.
