The CT-133 is Academy's kit, and was
assembled in a few short hours. The only modification was to install True
Details T-33 / F-80 Seat set. The painting was completed using Model
Master Gloss Black, and Non-Buffing Steel. Thanks to Leading
Edge Models for providing the decal sheet for review. As with all his
products, I find that they settle down well with Gunze's Mr. Mark Soft Solution.

The red
markings are opaque due to a white printed background coat. As you can
see, the red Flag on the underside really stands out against the black base
color. Careful trimming of the "exploded" leaf parts result in a
good fit on the gear doors. The remaining tips-n-stem parts are cut from
the "whole" leaf on the decal sheet.
