Sharp, crisp, great work, DD. Unable to concentrate on my builds, (simply have no time) ergo....thank you VA for supplying my fix. |

I used tracing paper to put the pattern on and masking tape in the painting. |

Unlike Thomas, this is very graceful looking. Are you stenciling the markings? |

Ah Man...this is slick...wish I could get back at mine. |

Of course, the dope drying so quickly might have an effect, as well... |

I'm covering outside where it's about 106* and that's too hot. The silkspan just will not adhere because it simply dries so quickly. I'll cover in the morning when it's cooler or inside. Solid surfaces are not a problem although they still have to be checked to make sure all is attached securely. |

Hmmmmm......from this angle, the nacelles look a couple of whiskey kegs, Jack Daniels maybe? |

That looks spectacular David. Any reason in particular you're waiting to cover the control surfaces? |
David Duckett, Image # 13918 | 30 Aug 09 18:06 |
A bit of fine tuning and it's off to the paint shop. |

The national insignia and letters will be painted on so to facilitate that, the stabilizer will not be attached until that's done. |

Everything is covered except the control surfaces which will be covered and painted before assembly. |

The nacelle is covered except for the area in front of the fill in and is glued in place. |

Hobbylite filler, 'fore & after |

DD, this is a beautiful piece of craftsmanship as usual. When this is finished, you need a Hellcat and Wildcat to complete the "cat" family. |

Looking awesome David! Looks like she's got some good inverted-flight characteristics! |

It's amazing the speed at which you can build these marvels. I think everyone agrees that you are increasing our collective knowledge base exponentially. |

Just amazing! |

Thanks as always David. The Tigercat has been another great build for us mere mortals to watch and marvel at your talents! |

No, but I believe Poppy puts on a coat of clear dope prior to using filler. |
