JohnB Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Just for grins I just thought I'd post these shots of my two SH/Czech Master F-80's. Same squadron. The Evil Eye Fleagle decals were made using my laser printer which was before they issued the kit with those decals. LOL I could have waited! 12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SapperSix Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 Wonderful job John, as usual. The NMF finish with the flat black and OD nose sections are very distinct. That little added detail along with the excellent color in the decals really bring the model to life. I am some whet indifferent to the 80's as an air-frame. These models have drug me from indifference to " I need to build one". Only a well done model can make that happen. Kudos! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for the nice comments. They can build up to be a nice model but they certainly do have their share of headaches. Thanks again for the nice comments. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlrwestSiR Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 A nice pair of builds there John. Especially when you consider the kit isn't a shake and bake one but requires some fighting and cursing to build. I can't recall if you've done the T-33 yet as that would be an obvious one to add next. Carl 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
