Strip: petrel question

ok,,,,

i am getting ready to glass the exterior of the deck of my petrel project.

i am curious if anybody has any advice on glassing around the recessed cockpit ...the backside.

did anybody do a little fillet between the recess back (thin curved diagonal piece) and the recess itself in order to be able to get the glass around it. in looking at it without a little fillet, its hard to see how you can get the glass to take the crisp angles that exists without building a little fillet. or did you use multiple pieces of glass around the recess.

thanks for your help.
