I haven't been working on the cowl recently, I've been trying to get all the work done on the rear of the fuselage, as that's what's left before I'm able to put the pieces together. The rudder is built and shaped, just need to attach the dorsal fin to it, and shape the rear top block. Then a lot of other fine sanding and shaping before everything comes together!!

Then the "FUN" begins! Sanding, sanding , sanding, filling, sanding, sanding..........

Stick with it, you'll love the plane!

Thanks Louie! I'll tell him you said hi. All that is left before I can put it in one piece is to shape the rear top block!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Boy, you need help or counseling. But, I like the building and sanding, it's the finishing I hate.

I've built the rudder, got silkspan on that yesterday, got the first coats of clear on the fuselage yesterday also. Today I'll be getting paper on the fuse, and if I'm really lucky and move quick, get the wing in the body. If not that will be tomorrow's job.
