Mars Snooper Build Part 21 Early Primer

The nozzle vanes were taped to a sheet of cardboard for spraying.
The outside edge of the fins are facing up, the root edge is stuck to the sticky side of the tape facing up.
Off the top of the vanes is a thin strip of tape covering the small edge that'll glue under Shroud #1.

After a shot of primer, the forward lug opening looks pretty good.
After sanding the seam should be gone.

The original kit used a 5" long lug. I made mine with a 3" long lug. The 3" lug is a workable length, but there isn't much left to trim off the top and bottom.
