The best advice that I can give is.......
Don't be in a hurry. Set yourself up in the living room, familyroom... on a couch with a door on the ottomans and plug away at it. It'll usually take me 1 night to do the little trim work, around the edges, joints, wingtips, gear plate... Another night for the wings with the trim and a third for the fuse and tail. If you rush it you'll only get frustrated.
