I finished the forward fuselage and pulled it from the mold. Initially it looked good, but I found a few surface voids on the lower half which wasn't properly vacuum bagged. I think with some filler it should be usable, at least for the prototype. Otherwise, I am happy and it feels relatively light coming in at 2lb 2oz.

Going to spend some time cleaning it up and I'll probably spray another coat of primer to seal it all in and make it look reasonable.
