Spent a couple of hours planing the fuselage down to size and doing some contour work on the forward fuselage.

I have renewed  interest in my Argus. I am carving the airfoil shape for the main plane.

Of course looking forward to more pictures of another fine model.

Some progress with the Argus. The vertical fin is rough carved and held in place with dowels.

Forward fuselage received some attention today.

Looking good Lou. What is the wood type; it seems to have a green tinge to it?

The tinge is lighting. I am using laminated clear pine boards from my local lumber yard.

I rounded off the center fuselage today. I ordered and received a set of 1/72 Argus decals and the itch to get at it is back.
