Like the forearms and biceps, the front of the thighs were put together with backing strips.  This went together pretty good...

Great picture taking, I like that you are taking lots of different angles and the lighting is excellent. Lastly that work space is epic!

Haven't posted in a bit.  We finished the thighs, well waiting for the last one to dry.

Both fronts of the thighs were done (minus the cover strips).  Had to fit and wrap up the backs with backing strips, new return edges, sanding, polishing, and cover strips.

 

Here is our progress...
