Rob K. Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 (edited) Hi, Please find my latest completion, the 1/48 GWH T-33 in RNLAF markings. For those interested....... Below is the link to the WIP thread, discussing the build. Made some picks with canopy open and canopy closed. Hope you like it. Just wondering what 50's/60's Cold War subjects are still missing from the collection............ Hunter, Meteor....?😉 Thanks for watching, Regards, Rob Edited May 15, 2020 by Rob K. grammar - inserted wip link 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadMax8 Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Very well build model, and the finish on it is great! Tells the story of an aircraft that has been used quite a bit, but always maintained. Thanks for sharing this one! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Pete Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Very nice indeed. If you don't mind me asking, what's the deal with the glasshouse? Canopy open or closed... Does the kit come like that or did you have to create a working hinge? (Not that I'd try anything like that myself... As a certified bodger I'm happy if my models come out with the right number of wings). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In order for it to close you have to snip off the end part of the canopy. So first made the pics with the cockpit open, then did some more surgery. Permanently (cemented) the canopy shut and then continued with some more images for the RFI forum. Thanks for your feedback.
