Trumpeter T-38C Talon, 1/48
Hello again iModeler! Here is my Trumpeter T-38C Talon, built completely OOB. This was a fun kit and I had no problems with it during construction. I purchased and built this kit last summer, so it did not stay idle in my stash for long. It was a welcome break from aftermarket builds and kit corrections. I would gladly build this kit again!

Nice Talon, Ramon!
Love the painting.
Was the Trumpeter kit good?

Thank you Spiros! Yes, this Trumpeter kit was rather fun! It was detailed enough to satisfy OOB, but still leaves room for superdetailing if you wish. Fit was pretty good... I had some issues with the belly seam but I think I probably did that to myself. It was a nice break from researching and scratchbuilding corrections. I would gladly build another one!

Nice as well, Ramon.
That scheme is looking great on this Talon.
One of my favorite aircraft.

Thanks for the inspiration to drag mine out and find those Caracal Decals for aggressors.
Very nice work on this and a great result.

Thanks for the kind words Tom! It was a fun and relatively relaxing build. I can't wait to see your T-38!
