The 'Essie'. Based on the SE-5a, she's a foamie with some balsa and light ply.
The model's built from pink foam, covered with newsprint and brown Dollar Store wrapping paper, using a 50/50 mix of Titebond II and water. Final painting is rattlecan Rustoleum. Roundels are Ultracote/Profilm (except for the rudder; that's paint, blue Rustoleum, and red Ultracote).
THE MIG MAIDENED VERY WELL IN THE GUSTING 15 MPH WIND BUT DUE TO THE BRITTLE NATURE OF THE PLASTIC SHE SIMPLY BROKE UP ON THE SLIGHTLY HARD LANDING - PITY AS THERE IS POTENTIAL THERE !
