Look ! It actually exists ! lol



I think what started this ones demise was using the wrong gray. I'll be rectifying that. I hope.



And like everything else I build, I can't even remember what the heck I was going to do with the hi-vis markings....

I like the SeaStar lots more than a T-33, too bad they're so rare on the model scene.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Too rare and only the single user I guess ? I sure think it's a nice looking aeroplane tho !

Definitely looking good Todd, you've given me an idea for one of mine (got the same kit as yours, plus a vacuform which I can't remember who made it, and the kit bash I was doing before I found the other two  :-X  )
If I'm not building models, I'm out riding my dirtbike

Captain Canada

That's the problem with the T-33 family.....too many ideas ! No, wait a minute, that's all aeroplanes lol

The vacform SeaStar was done by Griffon I think. I had one but sold it a while back, stupid of me......  :banghead:

Kit. Sword did a kit of the Seastar a year or two back.
heres one I noticed on "a well known online auction site" Seastar kit for sale
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

Ooooh, I like that, thanks OGL.  :thumbsup:

Not sure if I like the price, but it's par for the course these days I guess.
