Finally started to work on the much needed back side of the egg aero improvements

I would love some comments on the angle and whether I need a downward sloping or 90 degree edge. Does this kind of wing work well as is, or can I improve it?

I do plan to make side panels too which will be the base for a boattail, eventually.
