Two observations:
1) It appears that the first row of honey comb nearest the leading did not bond like the rest.
2) The leading edge of the skin at the D-spar interface looks like it did not bond with the substrate (darker green areas) as consistantly as in other areas (lighter green/white areas).
It may be that the paint acted as a filler in the area of the D-spar/skin interface preventing lifting of the skin. Lack of sealing in this area may also have allowed moisture entry or other contamination to become a factor.
