All covered, and two coats of satin Krylon. It's nowhere near a perfect job, but OK for now. How should I attach the wings? I was thinking of rubber bands, or magnets. Do you guys generally glue the wings on for free flight? What if something needs to be

tissue looks really good - - did the wing shrink like that with only the glue stick and water for the day?

The tissue looks great to me. Tack the wings with CA save mass!

The covering looks great. For this size of plane, it is probably better to tack the wings on. I generally only make the wings removable for models over 20 inch wingspan. If you can, the best approach is to tack only balsa to balsa. That way, if the wings get knocked off, they don't rip a chunk of tissue off as well.
