Default Tsunami - composites, part 2

Thanks for the comments guys. I'm happy to share my work. Sorry for the lack of updates this week. Work and other duties have been pestering me. We will paint Chris's Tsunami this weekend and I will begin layup on a fuse for myself. Looks like I found an engine for my plane and hopefully all will be in order. The new wing is holding up well, albeit I've found some problems with what I used for the surface coat. I took the wing with me in my truck to the field last weekend and obviously, the temp is elevated in the cab. I noticed that the paint bubbled a little in some areas. Could be the resin postcuring or the paint. But, nothing bad. Both landing gear ar mounted. Next, it's time to cut out the flaps/ailerons and start rigging them.

More to come...
