camper1 Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Hi Folks This T33 was assigned to the 318th FIS based at McChord AFB in Washington State. The decals are from an old Experts Choice sheet,the instructions called for the aircraft to be in ADC grey but I found a photo in an old[30 years plus]Military Aviation Review which showed it in bare metal, several other photo's in the mag showed a couple of grey one also assigned to the unit. I know this kit has its faults but it built well and I am happy with it. Ian 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Nice T-33 👍 ... I did the academy as my first build back into the hobby a few years ago. I thought the kit built up pretty well to. I did mine as a SAC hack in the 1970's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The model was painted with Xtracolor High Speed Silver thinned with Xtracolor thinners which give the paint a very smooth finish. Ian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Excellent build. I'm a big fan of the T-33 - there's something classic about its looks, to me. Job well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
