| 2nd sanding. A little more fill in spots and one more fine sanding and dope. Never done this before so should I cover or sand and paint as is? Pros and cons, please. |

| My scratch side build while working on the Camel kit. Not the Dumas kit and not Heywoood's Air Express. This is the Winnie Mae. I liked Heywoood's build so much I wanted to build a similar model. I don't expect to approach his craftsmanship because as I said earlier I lack the patience.(Not to mention the skill) My first attempt at a complete in fill. |
