Decalling the wings and control surfaces with lozenge decal sheet.

Covering the tailplane in lozenge decals and ribtape

Painting any fittings that will show through, interior green.

And there a couple of bolts opposite of where the struts attach.

Covering the underside of the wings.
Caution. It says specifically NOT to use decal softener.
However, I'm using the tiniest amount to make them follow sharp curves.
And yes, it does melt the decal. Do not touch. Leave it alone until dry. use extremely sparingly. Practice on a spare bit -and again, -DO NOT TOUCH UNTIL DRY.

A small imperfection. I only noticed after putting on the decal.
There is a bit of a dimple at the thickest part of the wing.
Dry fitting the finished lower wing and tailplane.

Wings done
