Taking a break from the Morane

I have just not been able to do a decent job on the cote work on the Morane Saulnier Type N. The bottom is done this morning, and it's fair, not good. The wing was pretty darn good. Did the top this morning and it's marginal. In retrospect I should have done the middle next, but that's inexperience. I tried the middle and it was crap. I made paper templates and cut it, trimmed it, tacked the corners then the edges. Loose but pretty precise. 

The problem is that when I shrink it, the part I am working on shrinks, but the sections next to it wrinkle. I work my way down the fuselage and it's like a little gremlin follows and undoes it behind me. I have used pretty low heat, around 300F up to 350F, same problem. My edges look like crap and start to pull.

The bottom is acceptable for a novice. Not great 

I threw up a former on both sides to support doing the fuselage cote in quarters. It helped but my edges still wrinkle. 

So I shelved the Morane. I cried a little ... It's crying too, telling me not to give up.

I cleared the bench. Part of me is glad to not be building. I am not a builder. I can fix, but building is not my thing 

I did order more Ultracote Olive Drab. It will be here Sunday. 

For now, a little rest then I am going sailing.
