Defenetly by far not my best model, but I used for practicing with 1:48 scale models. I had some issues by painting, especially with the green parts. Furthermore I used the first time enamel wash over acrylic colors / gloss coat. I fear the gloss coat was not fine enough, I was not able to remove the enamel color wasing as expected. It is as it is, I add the Vampire nevertheless to my projects for the sake of completeness.
If you own the kit too and if you like to build the same version, I spent a lot of time to find the perect green color. Finally I found the "The Army Painter Warpaints" Undergrowth Green (AW3433) which I highly recommend and matchs the green color of the decals perfect.
