paulsbrown Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 I was at an airshow at Seymour-Johnson AFB a few years ago and really liked seeing the T-38C with it's Navy Gloss Gray and Aircraft Gray camouflage. When I saw that it had duct tape over the various hatches I thought it would make a fun addition to a nice scheme. I added some new Martin Baker MK 16 seats that came with the aircraft's upgrade and some silver decal strips for the Alabama Chrome. Caracal decals were excellent replacements for the kit's awful ones supplied and the Caracal paint and decal guide provided great references. A bonus was they also included decals for the upgraded seats. 29 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unfinished project Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Cracking build and it’s the little attention to detail like the duct tape that brings kits to life. 👍👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baldwin8 Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 That's a sleek pair of Talons. Smokin builds. The "duct tape" was likely a safety addition while attending and open house to the public. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It went together pretty good, the intakes needed a bit of sandpaper but not much else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
