Collin Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Fond of the T-38, shared the pattern with them during my flying in Pax River (almost had a mid-air with one as well). This is the Wolfpack 1/48 kit OOB....well except for the dummy builder who broke the long pitot nose tube putting it on...that is a piece of metal tubing. Milliput white seat belts. Fun little kit and recommended. I'm still frustrated with my canopy work, a problem area for me. I messed up the front canopy a bit with the glue. When you stand next to one of these you could eat off of them...the contractor maintenance at TPS did a great job keeping these birds looking good. I decided not to weather this kit.

Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Very well done on your T-38 ... Interesting Scheme. I’ve heard of TPS, yet this is the first time i’ve seen the scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitchen Modeller Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Very nice - canopies don't look too bad in the photos - but I certainly understand not being happy with a certain result, no matter who tells you otherwise. It's still a great model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

72modeler Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Terrific Talon! Not my scale, but I always recognize outstanding modeling when I see it! I will be really sad when our Randolph AB T-38's are replaced by that butt-ugly contender I have seen in recent photos. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F-32 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Very tasty - just like the one they've got in the museum T-38 Talon by tony_inkster, on Flickr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldy Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Colin that is beautiful - super finish. I too love the Talon - a sort of graceful and delicate beauty. Could you tell me - does the model require weight added in the nose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Hello Collin, Excellent build. What a clean and lean machine. As for your canopy, try to use wood glue from the building market. No good, drop of water on it, take it off and try again. (As many times as you would like to repeat the exercise. You can use this system on many parts. (Wheels-bombs ect.ect.) Regards, Orion / The Netherlands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
