So after reading tons of threads on TRF, I did my first RocketPoxy fillets on my Tomach 2.6 fiberglass rocket today. I am curious if from these pictures anyone sees anything I've not done correctly or could do better. They appear good to me, but I've not gotten the "trained" eye yet; at least as trained as a majority of you.
Anyway, here goes: masking prior to fillets. Tip one picked up of the threads!
Using a Popsicle stick, drug out excess epoxy after about 20 minutes
After another 10 minutes, I covered a small diameter PVC tube in Isopropyl Alcohol and drug across the fillets three times, then after another 20 minutes I removed the tape (Rear shot)

I'm open to any suggestions, criticism, anything as I'm always learning and wanting to do better! Thanks!
