Thanks. It's actually a de Havilland DH 4 just masquerading as an SE 5A for the moment. Check the previous build photos for what I did so far. |

Indeed! Thank you for the project. |

Thanks! I often have to add a few drops of water and stir it up to get it where I want it. I have found that it has a mind of its own but the fight's worth it. |

Looks like you spent another afternoon in the chair out by the tree. Thanks for showing your process so clearly. |

Filler sure is something else to work with, I found that out this past weekend on my 'stang, though it was my first attempt. Do you thin yours at all to make it more manageable when applying it? Either way your results are magnificent. |

The bottom is fairly simple...later. |

Since Micro-Fill isn't available, I suggest this brand from Tower Hobbies. |

A light sanding reveals it to be British. |
David Duckett, Image # 10061 | 01 Dec 08 17:18 |
Apply a liberal amount of filler and let dry thoroughly before sanding. |

Ready for sanding with the T bar sander. |

I fill the curves with any size handy. |
