Getting closer - I'm finding that the final phases of this build seem to be the most time consuming. Combining the engine cowl with three pieces, cutting out clearance for the engine and ensuring that the prop is clear took a good part of the weekend! Need to fix some paint on the wing that peeled off with the Frog tape I used during the process. I used the wrong primer, but it seems to be holding reasonably well. I used epoxy finish paint sprayed on with a gun/compressor. Attached are a couple of picks with my Coast Guard finishing. Looks pretty cool - hope it ultimately flies!
