Before removing the cutting guide wraps, mark the inside of each segment.
The "AB" inside the tube stands for
A Section - Bottom.
It's easy to get these mixed up and it would be a jigsaw puzzle if not marked.
The seam edges were cut right on the line, the curved edges were cut wide and will be sanded off later after gluing.
The skin seams fall right on the black lines.
Again, use a glue stick to adhere them. The glue stick isn't anywhere near as messy at liquid white glue and allows for pulling up and re-positioning.
This is the first dry fit of the segments, the fit is very good now.
The white bottom segment will get a shroud cover.
The hole on the bottom ring is in line with the penciled launch lug line.
