Good job on the planking. The Sapele veneer looks really nice. The wood filler was a good match as you cannot see where it was applied.

Chimp, Do not be embarrassed to post you work here. We are here to help and support you in your build. Planking a hull can be very difficult and rewarding at the same time. We have excellent articles on planking located under the More tab at the top of this page. These articles will give you the knowledge to achieve excellent planked hulls. I feel that with a lot of sanding and some wood filler, you will have an excellent base for the second planking. Your Beagle will turn out to be a fine looking model.
