Yeah, how many of those poster's names look familiar around here now?  Where did they go? Smile

I was thinking the same thing, cool build.  The post almost had a hint of musty smell to it.  Stick out tongue

Very nice and convincing work.

BTW, how did you do the 2 tiny yellow stripes on the bombs  ?

Hey Tommy,

 I really thing she looks good in those markings, stands out..!! I have a few in my stash and I may go for the more colourful route than anything else.

 How did you like the over all buiuld in general??

Flaps up,

Mike

Hey All...I got this Academy 1/48 T-33 and when I reached the decaling...my favorite part...they started acting very badly. I found that unusual for Academy. However, I had no fear 'cause I've got a huge pile of leftover decals so I just started finding things that seemed like the things to use. Parts are from an old Hobby Craft T-33 which I must have given away and the other stuff is probably from leftover Seaking. Anyway, who cares! It was fun and I think it looks ok in my two chapter book. Let's just say it represents squadron me.
