Its bloody finicky :-x

So here is the upper wings skin been attached.

Very delicate work.

And this is what it will hopefully look like once the top side has been completed.

I have misted it already (Misted basically means I have given it a light spraying of water to make it shrunk), you can get a sense of the scale of this beast by comparing it to my hand :cool:.

The trailing edge did not come out as good as I had hoped but it will have to do for the moment, once the upper wing is complete I will be ready to dope them... and no, its not that kind of dope :-P. Like the covering doping is something I haven't don't before and yes this will be my only doping experience ;).

Great work Krupi. Giving me the urge to have a go at this myself.

I love balsa!
 

Ahh yes the vaunted Guillows kits, some of my first balsa models were Guillows:-P hevier the led and stronger then steal (purportionatly lol) they always crashed better then they flew, great stuff but that balsa grade was tuff to make a great flyer hehe:cool:

:lol:

I have been too busy to get started on the other parts ATM and I am still debating what to do about the elevator.

Will have to work on it this weekend.
