Got the 1/48 Hobbycraft T-33A Shooting Star done. The build started as the HC RT-33 kit, which was converted to the T-33A by grafting a spare Hawk kit Shooting Star nose onto the HC kit. I also added a Verlinden interior, simply because it was in the box. The markings are for a T-33A in Korea using an Aeromaster sheet.

I should have had one of the USAF's most important trainers on my shelf long before now, but glad one's finally there now!

That is a real beauty of a build! Such an iconic aircraft!  Your NMF work is excellent. Somebody around here has a real one at the local airport, and every now and then you can catch sight of it when he decides to take it up for a flight.
