Greetings to all. A little more of the T33, the wings. Give me a good fight, first because I laminated the pieces in white cardboard and maybe it is very thick, in these planes in 1/50 or the tanks I always do this, because it gives more rigidity and avoids deformations. I never had problems with this, until the T33, the thickness complicated me for something I did not notice: the system that Gerard designed to close the wings. Usually (I do not remember doing it otherwise) we always close by the edge of flight. In this model you have to close by the leading edge, interesting and novel for me. Being thick the paper struggles enough to be able to join and shape it. The result I think is quite good, the coupling to the pieces structural was perfect, there were no problems except a few "lights" to join the fuselage to fill and then painted. Something strange that I noticed and made me doubt, I do not know if someone else saw it, look at Tony's model and then compare it with the of Willem and this, there is something strange, it made me doubt and I had to look r photos of the real plane to be sure. It's all for now, a few parts are missing but the most complicated is done. Thank you very much
