The cowl paint looks really nice, it even has a clear coat on it..
 



The fuse is well-done..


 



The stripes are straight, almost no bubbles..

 






 



Internal shot of fuse, it
 has a lot of truss construction..



 


Firewall is nice and shiny, already clear-coated.  What looks like a chip at about 2 o'clock is some sort of weird reflection in the pic..
 



Covering edges on wing roots is nice...




 



Pull strings for servo leads are pre-installed..




 



Covering quality continues on wings...
 



..and control surfaces..

 





 




The GP stock photo..what it's supposed to look like when it's finished..c'mon Brian - GET BUSY!
