Here is a model that was a unique challenge. It came out of the box
MISSING the port upper wing and flap. I made the new wing out of card, plastic sheet and spit. Hard part was trying to figure the best way to
shove enough stuff under the wing to give it a natural curve without snapping the wing apart.

The best thing about this kit was the LEADING EDGE decals. Its a brand
new sheet for the CT-133 Silver Star in the Hornet paint scheme. Comes with more options then I knew what to do with. So many options I am
going to have to build another one. Even BETTER thing was the extra sheet Leading Edge sent me!!!!!!!
One neat thing as while this model was being painted I kept hearing MAKO
1 taking off from the local airport. That is the grand paint scheme on X 133504 with the giant shark mouth. Nothing like the right inspiration.
