Starting to detail, had problems working with the over-stated fuel caps! |

Used pin heads to simulate bolt heads. |

| Nice work! |

Fuselage; shows some mistakes but liked how the pin heads look for the bolts. |

| You said you've been away from the hobby 40 years or 40 days? Great stuff! |

| It appears to be lightweight silkspan, the same used in all larger Guillows kits. If it were tissue it would have turned into mush when wet for covering. |

| I used the tissue that came with this Guillows kit and it does have a grain. I don't know if this is silkspan, do the current Guillows kits include silkspan or the same tissue as the vintage (30-year old) kits? Thanks for the compliments. |

| Yes, silkspan does have a grain and it does affect the shrinkage. You can sort of see it and a tear will sort of follow the grain. I've warped wings by not having the l\grain run the length of the wing. Jastazwei, it looks like a good fix to me. You sure do a nice smooth job of covering. |

| Very good problem solving. Outward appearance not changed, but now good and strong! |

| Great idea. Does silkspan have a grain associated with the paper. I know the polyspan I use does and the forces applied to the surface have a lot to do with direction of the grain. |

| Everyone, thank you for all the advice. I'm looking forward to my next model to incorporate your ideas. |
