OK the canopy has been added and the landing gear.The cockpit glass fit was not that great so I used some filler the blend it into the fuselage. I started priming with Tamiya white surface primer.Once I have got a good covering and made sure all the seams are gone and panel lines are back I will be using testors gloss white for the top coat. darbyvet attached the following image(s):

Now the T38 is going to be in the spray booth for a while getting a gloss coat I am moving on with the next kit F84F Thunderstreak This is a kinetic kit.I added in an Aires resin cockpit set and a correct nose piece.The kit is pretty simple.The panels lines are a bit heavy , but I will be using Tamiya spray lacquer for this one so I think once the paint is applied the lines will look less noticeable. Fit seems pretty good so far, but the parts are quite thick with pretty big sprue attachment points. darbyvet attached the following image(s):

The resin cockpit is painted now.The instrument panel needs to be fitted and then you need to do some surgery to the fuselage sides to fit the resin cockpit. Carl darbyvet attached the following image(s):
