Almost done, still working on the small details. Cant wait to fly my bird. I have not had much luck with Guillow decals so I made my own. |

Lucky Guillow kits don't fly high, I might not see this bird against the blue sky. |

Like my Bird? Still have to add fillets. |

For some reason I really wanted a Yellow nose. With the red spinner looks like a clown. I used Brown tissue for the canopy detail glued on with white glue. |

| The top of each panel is two pieces. The wing tip is covered separately. |

| Perfet covering. |
| scigs30, Comment for image # 6940 | 06 Mar 08 11:38 |
| It was covered in 4 pieces. |

| Is that one piece on the top of the wing? I haven't done one yet without a crinkle in the tips! |

Everything is covered and shrunk, now I will apply 2 coats of dope. |

| I use 50/50 Elmers and Water. Secret to clean lines is to have straight stringers. I also use fresh scalpel blades to trim the tissue, for a build of this size I will use 2 blades without the handle. |

Brown has been added now I will shrink the tissue and apply two coats of dope. |

| That's amazing. So neat! How was this applied? |

| Wow, how did you get the trim lines so clean? |

| Marvelous covering job. Trim lines are extremely clean. Good work. |

Tan and Blue are done, now I have to apply the Dark Brown then I will shrink all surfaces. |
| scigs30, Image # 6939 | 05 Mar 08 19:05 |
The Domestic Aqua Blue is on nice and tight, next is the Tan. Domestic tissue does not shrink as tight as Esaki so I am able to apply tight without warping. |
