Default RE: Expresscraft Thunderbolt build II

Spent the afternoon working on the body of my Thunderbolt and got most of it done, will do a final coat when it comes apart for painting. Started sanding the sides with a DA w/80 grit. to cut down rough edges. Used Evercoat's Quantium body filler, best body filler on the market (light weight and has 2 different temp. hardeners). Finished off with a 180 grit scratch. it took 2 coats but as you can see in the last pic, its thin enough to see light go through the hull.
