Those two look superb Ericr. 

If you repainted the blue one (DC3 wings) in standard Luftwaffe camouflage I reckon you could fool some people into thinking it was an RW radial engine version of the He-111. 

The Whitley wings on the other are just TOO obviously from Coventry.

thanks ! 

I quite like the Whitley wings : overall the Whitley is nicely ugly actually

From a Do 217 perhaps ?

There was one in China, an He 111 A-0 that was re-engined with Wright Cyclones in 1943.

very surprizing ! my whiff isn't one, it seeems, finally

The bright blue colour was what-if anyway, I think

As an aside Jon do you know what those markings are ?

The Manchukuo AF used characters on the fuselage, but then roundels on the wings. So I don't think it's one of their's ?

Cheers Jon. I thought it might have been in civil (or what passed for it) use.

I found this nose quite fitting (coming from a 1/72 Tu-22) :
