wbaiv: After second fill-and-sand cycle, ready for second paintjob
wbaiv: Engine nacelles, one just glued, the other sanded, ready for paint
wbaiv: I used square section strip, the defect was more or less "U" shaped, not "V" shaped.
wbaiv: I scraped the seams, taped in the strips and then wicked Testor's non-toxic (blue label) liquied glue to fuse them in.
wbaiv: Bare metal finish made the defects visible, so a second round of filling with strip styrene
wbaiv: Ready for first coat of paint
wbaiv: Checking painted wihg for fit with unpainted fuselage
