For this part of the build my plan is to first do test fitting of the skins to make sure they are sized properly and to do a walk-through of how to attach them to minimize any unexpected problems for the final installation.

The panels are being glued to gold wrapping paper to simulate the interior protective film. The wrapping paper will also serve as tabs for the overlapping seams. I then formed them around the model using masking tape to hold them in place temporarily.

The skins temporarily installed so far are parts numbered 320ab, 321ab, 322, 323, 324ab, 325, 326, 328, and 330. I was unable to find any part numbered 327. Part 329 is the docking target so I will hold off on that until final assembly.

Part count to date: 718
