Joel_W Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 I stand on my previous statement. Just an outstanding build, camo paint scheme, and decaling. But your weathering just pushes your build to the next level. Even the cockpit sills are weathered just right. Joel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gary West Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Thats one fine build Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ST0RM Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 That's gorgeous. The red canopy sills really set off the normal drab cockpits. Well done! -Jeff Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skyhawk174 Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Yves caught your article in the latest issue of RT. Thanks very much for submitting it as well as the other CT-133. Great tips and I see how I messed up on my T-33 kit I started several years ago. For some silly reason I missed that the exhaust in the Hobby Craft kit was too far in. Oh well, not much I can do about it now since my fuselage is all buttoned up. Hmm, I could ope it back up but I don't think I want to. I did notice that the kit has that NACA duct already moulded but not the vent in the armament door. Will need to scratch build that as well as the port side exhaust and add the fuel dump. I also have most of those detail sets and I actually used the KMC intakes and they worked out ok. The one thing I was really happy with was the main landing gear wheel wells. I used the AMS resin set and it is a gorgeous piece of work. A little fiddling to get it in but worth it I think. Missed the air brake thing but I will do that on my next one. Or I could just ditch my stash of Academy kits and use the GWH kits :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grandboof Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I agree the red sills make the cockpit. Well done. Martin H Quote Link to post Share on other sites
