It's some blue foam with 3 layers of glass. I did not vacuum form it but pulled it over by hand.

Hoping to get my S2G 4.2m Ka6e finished for a maiden that weekend too.
Still got a couple of servos to install and cover the wings and position all the graphics.
A week of evenings should see it done though.
