Sanding off the filler on the starboard wing root was a pain, as it is not easy to handle given it's size.  Port was relatively easy.

It may even see the first coat of paint over the weekend...

It's a right-handed, left-handed thing Lee. I have had similar problems when sanding some things. You just have to turn things around and around until you find an angle or direction that is easier than the rest.

Managed to get a coat of primer on, so I'm now sorting out the myriad dings, scratches and dimples that need sanding off, filling a few holes that the primer highlighted as well as reinstating some panel lines.

She's a big beast, that's for sure
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Happy with the second primer coat after fixing the various dings, etc.

That's looking VERY serious now.  :thumbsup:

That's the lighter of the two greens...

There's some areas where I'll need to polish it back and a few that need another coat, but very happy with it so far.
