Entebbe paint scheme is becoming very frustrating!

Very difficult to get all the layers in place and all the design lined up across separate parts.

Dave,
Been working in Fat Albert but having some troubles. I notice the wing cut outs are not printed on my model (from prize package)any chance of emailing a version of that portion I could trace to get correct placement?
Also my bad but I have been using Cannon 45lb photo paper and in large scale it oilcans to much. What weight stock are you using on your builds?

The wing cutouts?
..not sure what you mean by this.
When I say "wing cutout", I am usually referring to wing shaped holes in the
sides of the fuselage, that a wing assembly might pass through (as in my
B24 models)...but the Hercules wing assembly sits on top of the fuselage.
You cut the marked slot for the cross spars and drop the wing in.
(Then you finish the wing wing installation with the front and side fairings.)

If you are referring to a different problem, can you show me photos?
I'll do my best to help.

I generally use 65lb cardstock...plain white.
(I probably used 110lb card for the mid-fuselage sections on my AC-130 build)
I love Wausau cardstocks, but I also use the sale stuff from Michaels.

What is "oil-canning"?
I rarely work with "Photo" papers since they crack and crease easily,
and glue doesn't stick to the glossy surfaces very well.
Some people swear by glossy papers and more power to them!
I don't know how 45lb photo compares to 65lb card, but I'm sure it doesn't
bend, flex and curve as nicely.

Tip for the Hercules...follow my suggestion for order of fuselage assembly.
Assemble the fuselage sections and as you go, insert formers into already connected sections.
Trim the formers down to a easy fit...they don't need to be tight.
They only need to help form the fuselage shape.
I have made sure there is enough internals to keep up the overall strength.
