This video outlines the process I used to fabricate the fuselage for my 1/4 scale Pitts Challenger III.

The process involves making a simplified plug and laying the final, airworthy fuselage directly on that plug. This saves considerable time over building a detailed plug and pulling a complex mold from it. There are advantages to that method, but for models that you only want to build 1 or 2 of this alternate method can save you a lot of time.
