T-33 and P-80 is a great work of Rob Carleen, simple models but effective replicas, easy to build... My T-33 mania begum now:D

[Jan Kytop]

Very nice work!

[cMags]

Looking good!

I found that the nose-weight issue is easy to fix on this design, just gob up one end of a paperclip with PVA and drop it through the tailpipe to the nose. A normal size clip was fine for my 1:72 T-33 and P-80, but you can test by sitting it on the nose first.

Keep up the good work!

See you next time

Cheers!

Nice Tip CMAGS!!! I use in next T-33's

Cool, but the point is that even with the completed build, the whole fuselage is hollow and open via the tailpipe, so you can add a dab of glue to a paperclip, and literally drop it down the tailpipe to the nose and let it dry. It will stay in place then and weight the nose so they sit on 3 wheels.

Great work on the T-33's by the way. Nice and clean builds.

[gomidefilho]

New work finished!

Hawker Hunter FGA Mk 58 Indian Air Force, used alongside Su-7 in ground Atacks in Indian-Paquistan War in 1971.

Really nice collection.
All perfect models, in 1/100 scale.
Often I do not like small scales below 1/72, but ...
...Very attractive; thanks for this demonstration.

Orazio

[gomidefilho]

Thank's Orazio :)

I Choice 1/100 scale because a space problem to display my models, but I love 1/48 and 1/50, but for this scale I selected few subjects (WWI and Golden Era Airplanes) to build. Is very funny see the reactions for people to size of models (my plastic modelers friends from IPMS in my city).:D:D

[Wyvern]

Really great work!

Wyvern

[Jan Kytop]

Great models!

[gomidefilho]

Thank's my friends!!! :)

I decide to show my assembly process of DGA's T-33.

I'm show build Thai and Mexican Air Force T-33

My materials and tools to build:

4x 120g Filecoat Paper Sheets (for this scale: 1/100 is perfect to print)
2x #11 scalpel blades and cutter
Round metallic pencil
2x paper clips (small size)
Hidrocolors pencil (to cover the white corners and edges)
white PVA glue
Cianochrilate Glue
Tool for make lines
Cutting mat
Dullcote verniz
Metal ruler

The original model is in 1/48 scale printing at 100% but is not detailed for this scale, in 1/100 or smaller is perfect, the Designer Rob Carleen capture perfect the shape of original aircraft.

My assembly sequence



Fuselage
Air intakes
Wings
Estabilizer
Jet Exaust
Canopy
Wing tip tanks
Undercarriage
Undercarriage Doors
Nose Weight

Fuselage:

Is make from four segments, the shape is a tube, the most dificult part is nose section, is need atention and careful to fold. The rear section too because is integrated with tail part.

http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p101/gomidefilho/t33%20build/Construction-1.jpg

Main sections of fuselage assembly, is easy to make because is a tube...

http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p101/gomidefilho/t33%20build/Construction3.jpg

Main sections of fuselage build wating the nose, is very careful "merried" panel lines...

http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p101/gomidefilho/t33%20build/Construction4.jpg

http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p101/gomidefilho/t33%20build/Construction5.jpg

The pics show the nose assembly the most complicated part to build in this stage...

http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p101/gomidefilho/t33%20build/Construction6.jpg

Fuselages complete. :)

[gomidefilho]

Air intakes...

Is very simple to build, is a shape curve format, but the best tip to fixed in fuselage is a make fencers in correct place to glue intakes tabs (not folded)

http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p101/gomidefilho/t33%20build/Construction7.jpg

http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p101/gomidefilho/t33%20build/Construction8.jpg

http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p101/gomidefilho/t33%20build/Construction9.jpg

If the holes make in correct palces the result is a shown in third pic.

In this section, not respect my own assembly process and make a jet exaust the white side is paint in dark grey hidrocolor pen.

http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p101/gomidefilho/t33%20build/Construction10.jpg

http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p101/gomidefilho/t33%20build/Construction11.jpg

Continue...:D

[gomidefilho]

In this step I make wings, is a very simple process only superior face is curve shape.

http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p101/gomidefilho/t33%20build/Construction12.jpg

http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p101/gomidefilho/t33%20build/Construction18.jpg

In the pics is show assemble wings of two T-33 's, note the wing hoke open in intake, the bes tip insert the tab before gluing, after dry glue top of wing and make a diedro for wings.

[gomidefilho]

In this step I make stabilizer is very simple to build, the most dificult is open hole to insert this piece in the tail...

http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p101/gomidefilho/t33%20build/Construction19.jpg

http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p101/gomidefilho/t33%20build/Construction21.jpg

In the next I make a canopy, is simple but for the best result I recommend compound the shape with a esferal shape tool.

http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p101/gomidefilho/t33%20build/Construction25.jpg

Continue...:D

[gomidefilho]

The next step is a make of wing tip tanks, the most complicated in this sub-assembly is a form to frontal tip of the tank, but i use a ogival form to make the shape...

[gomidefilho]

Undercarriage.

Is a very simple to build, in this 1/100 is a small pieces in the frontal leg i use a very hard #11 blade to open this holes for hidraulic braces and legs, after the finished group I glue with cianochrilate glue.

After I make and glue this doors the process is a same.

[gomidefilho]

The final touch is nose weight (very nice tips from a CMAGS friend), for display purposes and balance, I make nose weight with paper clips cut and mold to insert in a fuselage, vewry simple and effective tip. :)
