Trim the edges of each panel as you go, and finally the wings are "skinned".

They look great. You did not mention any glue on the ribs or stringers so I'm assuming you did not put any glue there. When I tried sheeting I did and you could see it in a nasty way which is why I don't do it. I can certainly see the advantage of gluing the sheeting only on the edges>

Yes, I tried the other way also with nasty results. Just have to make sure all ribs and stringers are sanded smooth with no unwanted raised edges.

VERY NICE!! Did you wet the wood or was it a dry bend?

AWWW RITE!!! Looking sharp, Sir.......

Dry bend. This is the same technique I use on all my wings simulating metal covers. Although now I only glue leading and trailing edges and end ribs.
