Oh yeah, good bump r2champion.

MA, I did not realize that you still had this thing "under construction"
HAHAHA that will teach you to do a build thread.
Ain't that the Truth, Charlie!! [:@] Well, my intent was to do a super detailed thread like RCKen and Minnflyer ... I started out of the gates fast and simply tuckered out. I've said it before in this thread, I have a huge amount of respect for guys that can build and document consistently for us here on RCU. Hopefully this Hog Build thread can one day help the new Hog Builder through with less stress. I gotta finish it first, however!![X(]

Actually, I do have progress to report - no new pics, yet. After r2's bump, I retired back to the hog last night. When I last left off (page 11 of this thread, BTW [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/fb.asp?m=7276828]here[/link]), I had just finished covering the top wing. Last night I finished covering the bottom section of the Top wing Ailerons (the back/white stripes) and "made" the black/white stripes for the Bottom of the Bottom Wing. I am piecing together mono/ultra cote to make a single piece of covering. Anyway, once I got through with that, I realized I hadn't cut the Ailerons for the bottom wing, so I took care of that and shaped and sanded the wing tips on the bottom wing.

I realize this doesn't sound like much, but all that took me 4 hours. [:-]

I'll see about posting some pictures later tonight.
