This is the T-38 model that is in the same folder as the SCA on Yahoo Realspace modelers group. I had originall planned to build it last weekend but ran out of time. Anyway, I knocked this one out Wednesday afternoon. I thought that the original cnaopy looked kind of cheesy, so I scratchbuilt cockpit and pilots out of some left over cardstock (the helmets are hotglue). I used some left over packaging from a doorknob set for the canopy. I made a mold out of some left over trim cut and sanded to
the right size. I think I may try this aircraft again at a later date, anyone know of a more detailed version of this aircraft.

Not too bad DynaSoar. I like the edited shot if the plane coming in to Edwards. Very nice. I have that model as well. It's a bit small compared to what I normally build, but would look nice next to a shuttle and 747.

Actually, on the Edwards shot, I just hung the plane in front our home computer's monitor with string. :P

Looks good. The canopy really adds to it.
