Default Scratch Built SeaMaster

I have had the plans in DXF format for some time now, a few months back I built one out of scrap wood just to see if it would actually build a decent looking plane. The first one really came out fair concerning the material I used. Anyway I started building and this is what it looks like so far. Still have one aileron to cover and install, have the pod built but have not come to decision as to what power to use on it. I built the pod to accept a Satio 56, (plans call for a .40 size 2cy max) or go with electric motor. Picture is not the best but hey at least I figured out how to take one.
