The second side was a bit more work. I took it outside to mist with Krylon.

The wings werent a problem although since I based the skins on my NoCal F2A skins they come out looking cartooonish on a dimensional model.

These are the skins I printed for the wing and stabalizer. This was relatively simple. The fuselage, not so much.

I got back to work on the wings. I did do a slight redesign but it is still going to have bamboo wing tips as the plan calles for. This is not my first experience with 1930s building techniques.
