Rocketship Games MMX Hawkeye, Part 3, Balsa Prep and Primer

The balsa grain was filled while the parts were still on the laser cut sheet. I wouldn't normally fill the balsa this way, but the pieces are very small and the balsa thin.

Here I'm breaking apart the the pieces off the sheet.

A bit more CWF was rubbed into the edges and allowed to dry.

On the left, some 400 grit was wrapped around a dowel to sand the round trailing edges of the wing pieces.

The leading edges were rounded.

The pieces were set down on scrap cardboard for a shot of filler/primer.

There is an extra vane piece.

The slotted "dorsal bar" (runway) piece is not shown here.
