Yes it's coming right along. It'll be ready for decals when they show up (I hope on Wednesday).

I decided to use some of the kit decals to get a start on decaling.

Thank you Kevin. I hope the Super Scale decal sheet gets delivered tomorrow! Then I can get the rest of the decals on.

Thanks Paul. I was hoping the decals I ordered for it would show up today but no luck. Tracking now says "by Friday". I'll finish applying the kit decals today and hope the Super Scale sheet shows up soon. 

[JohnB]

This is as far as I can go decal wise until that sheet shows up. I'll set it aside for now.

I'll do my T33 when and if I get my decals from Italy. Unless someone here can make decals....harv

[Martinnfb]

Boom ! , super clean!

Okay Harv. I built one of those too and all the headaches that the F-80 has are still there so be prepared.

[harv]

Oh yes. I've watched several built over the years.  So I'm painfully aware.....harv

Nice and clean there John. The shark mouth seems to suit the F-80/T-33 planes really well.

There's an RCAF T-33 that had a shark mouth which if decals existed for I'd go through the process(torture?) and build another one.

Thanks Carl. I'm still waiting for the decals to show up. Hopefully SOON. I'm ready to finish up and proceed to my next build which is a Kittyhawk T-28B USN overall yellow with green stripes on wings and rear fuselage, 1955.

[JohnB]

I'm within minutes of finishing this one. I'll post a link here for the completed model.

[JohnB]

All done.
