Here she is all built with weight and rubber added ready for flight. Finaly weight is 165 grams. Covering was a challenge but I covered with wet tissue. Two pieces were used on the fuselage for a smooth look. The wing was a challenge so I covered that wet as well to help with the large LE profile. Once she was all shrunk, I brushed on 2 coats of Aerogloss dope. The decals did not stick well so I glued some on with white glue. The wing is so sturdy I could not add washout, so I deflected the outer ailerons to aid in washout. The wheel pants are glued to the wire not the wing. |

Compared to my Guillows Stuka and Monogram 1/48 kit, the Comet build is large. |

Originally I wanted mine to look like my old Cox Stuka, but decided to keep it white so I could see the construction design. |

The decals are peel and stick, the kit tissue is what I used even though it was a little brown. |
