From the pictures, it looks like you're doing fine! Here's a little tip: you might consider trimming off that 1/4 inch or so of clear material that is at the edge of the Monokote. (I noticed it in one of the wing pictures) It makes for a cleaner covering job. Be sure to have plenty of #11 blades and single-edge razor blades available, as Monokote tends to dull blades quickly, and having sharp blades helps to make clean cuts.
Also, you might consider putting stripes on the bottom of the wing only instead of a stripe that goes around the entire chord of the wing so that you can differentiate the top and bottom of the plane in flight.
Keep up the good work!
I am doin the the yellow strip the center of the wing the part that you see uncovered right now and the bottom will be yellow with black stripes going front to back all the way across the stripes. The stripes will be 3 inchs wide. Thanks fo rthe tip about the clear material I was wondering why its was there and hopeing that it would not be that noticeable oh well I will know that next time.
