Thunderbirds T-33 Shoting Star

[mor54]

Hello all,

The T-33 needs no presentation !



Starting to build a 1-33 scale model, that is based on my screatch build F-80. The maine fuselage change is adding two section - one of 26inch at the cockpit area, and another of 12 inch at the rear, after the wings trailing edge.



Based on the F-80, had to change only 2 fuselage parts. All other sections are without change.





In parallel, designing the fuel tanks, with the help of Siatki (basic) software. Each tank done from 8 sections.





Hoping to post more in the next few dayes.

Will this model be for sale as a kit, or download when finish?
Looks great so far.

Thanks Theo and The Mole,

Thanks for the interest and comments.

Regarding the question of making the model public, I think that if it will came as a good model, I am planing to present it at Ecardmodels.

A small update - fuselage section and cockpit frame.





The cockpit fram should be inserted and bonded as part of bonding this section.

Hello all,

Continue working on the fuselage, maine effort was the color matching from one part to the next one.







The cut in the former is for the nose landing gear. Cut out was done only after it was bonded.

Thanks nighthawk78 and Theo,

This build is based on the f-80, and it looks that I need to refine some parts.
