Bird #2 in the Thunderbirds series. I'm having *REAL* fun with these decal sheets. Most of the kits (T-33, F-100D, F-105, F-4, T38) were produced by Hasegawa in the mid-'70s to mid '80s, and the decal sheets have deteriorated badly. They've dried out, and become VERY brittle. I've had to buy decal sheets on EBay, and they too are in rough shape. I ended up by brush painting Testors gloss lacquer over the decals to keep them from shattering when they're dipped in water. I first tried airbrushing the lacquer on, but I found I needed a thicker coat. I'm working through the kits now, and dealing with the decal issues as I come across them.

Minor error n this one. Didn't realize, until it was too late, that the tail surfaces had to be painted white before the red scallops & stars were applied. One of the problems with the various decal mfgs. Some of the sheets also provide the white, others don't By the time I realized, I'd already applied a bunch of decals, and was beyond the turning point. I addressed this problem on the F-100 and F-105, but I'll just have to live with my mistake on the T-33.

Another problem cropped up during the build. The kit-provided decal sheet was incomplete. They provided no decals for the drop tanks, instead indicating they had to be painted, but no stencil for that. Having built his one before, I knew the first one I built DID provide decals, so I found Microscale sheet #72-133 on EBay and purchased it. I had perviously purchase this sheet about 3 decades ago, and built all 3 versions (T-Birds, Blue Angels and Golden Knights). Unfortunately this decal sheet also suffered from deterioration, forcing me to touch up a couple of the red scallops. I've now purchased THREE Microscale T-Birds decal sheets in the past 6 weeks (T-33, T-38 F-100) that have splintered when wet. After the first one, I started carefully testing unused decals on the sheet, before applying them. The best fix I found was to brush paint over the decals with Testors clear lacquer (a spray coat was too thin).
