Nice, though I think that the tip of the tail on Meteor was thinner.
As for the Vampire - I have to admit I don't quite like the tail, intakes, canopy and cannons.

The cannons're kinda tricky on the Vampire, I'm not sure I got 'em in the right place - the Venom's on my to-do list and all the photos I can find have the outermost guns forward. The tail's different on the Mark 1, later variants had a lower-set tailplane and taller, pointed fins but yeah, I admit it needs a bit of tidying up. Intakes will also be tweaked later on.

Ilamaman, would you like a better reference for the Vampire? I have blueprints for it, I was going to get round to doing it, but alas, you've beaten me to it.

The Vampire looks good so far. Perhaps outline the cannon apertures in black/ dark grey? I share your frustration with getting nose curves correct, sometimes even in FD scale it just isn't smooth enough. I could be persuaded to do the Javelin, I think I might have a 3-view plan somewhere...

The vampire very cool. I am looking forward to see the venom. I have seen a venom on a airshow, but I can remember me well, when I was with my grandmother on Mt. Rigi about 1982 or 1983 and we have seen a squadron of venoms flying around it.
