Body Skin 2.7 - Back on R5's body again

Whilst waiting for paint to dry, I carried on with the cutting out and grooving on R5's Skin.
I finished off the front recessed vent slots and outside edge groove.

The skin is now weak at the end of the slots, so rather than try fitting a piece of wood behind, that would need painting up blue, and then trying to fit it to the curve of the skin.
I used some perforated metal sheet, that could be bend to shape.

This is how it should look once glued (P40 resin) in place.

I then grooved the outside edge of the front coin return.
