Default Feedback on wing build

I would like some feedback on what you guys think of the finish on the wing off one of my planes. also i would be intrested to see if any of the new guys know what plane it is off.
I love the shape of this wing and i still cannot believe how much dihedral it has it's just a huge amount. I turned on the landing and nav lights but the pictures do not do them any justice because of the lights in my friends house and the flash off the camera. it was a lot of work glassing and painting. i know there is a flap missing but it is getting panel lines put on it.

It looks great. Can you tell me more about the lights?

The lights that i have for the plane were made by paul hopkins ([email protected]) on the wing, the landing lights are both 9 cluster ultra-brite led's. the navigation lights are 6 cluster ultra-brite led's these lights are the brightest on the market (better than rams product imo) on the fuse i have a 9 cluster on the front of the cowl, a 6 cluster in the tail cone and 2 strobe lights 1 white 1 red when i was first asking paul about these lights he needed to know what the full scale plane had for lighs so he could make a scale set. he researched what the plane had and emailed me pictures of the full scale plane and asked if that was what i wanted (he did a lot of research). you can see more of pauls lights on jets at www.dreamworksrc.com

How much did the lights cost you, I want to get some, also, are they on a totally different channel or not? I have itme where we fly right as the sun goes down and would turn them on before flight, but i dont have an extra channel
