1/100 Etihad 787-9 Build

I saw Chris's thread where he was offering a model for a picture, and asked for an Etihad 787. Elated when I received it, I tested my luck, asking for a second one, an Air New Zealand 787. I ended up receiving both. I will post progress on my Etihad 787 on this thread. I'll do a separate thread for the Air New Zealand. Anyways, here's the model. Not particularly happy because the paper keeps on folding when I try to bend it. I printed it on 90lbs glossy paper for the first time, and it's giving me a headache.

Looks great so far! Can't wait to see your finished build and the ANZ bird.

The fuselage is done. I love the look of it, it's a wonderful livery. However, I really hate glossy paper now, and I printed my ANZ on it. (Sigh) Good for me. Chris, I hope you get the Korean, United, and American liveries done. I need more projects.

I ran into a problem. The wing fairing piece is not large enough to cover the gray area. Does anyone have any tips or solutions? And also, does anyone have a set of instructions for this model?

There's a difference in size with the page that has it in one piece, and the one that is broken up into pieces. Do you want me to send a picture of it?

Never mind, it was a problem with my printer. Sorry about possibly insulting you Chris.
