Beginners help required

I am building my first model, Stinson V-77. Some parts have tabs to glue while other parts don’t, eg struts, wheel fairings and other part of wings which have some tabs but tips do not. What do I do with these areas and items. The wings have a Center section which is not coloured. How do I use this a do I have to colour it myself.

Normally if a part does not have a tab it means that you need to "Edge glue" the part... or you can add your own "tab" by gluing a piece of paper to the back side of the part.
The white center in the wing should be hidden by the body of the plane. If it is not, then you need to move the wall of the fuselage outward to cover it.

Always work on a copy. Just in case you need an extra part o redo something!
By the way, which designer/printer is your model?

NP, we are here to help

That looks like a Fiddlersgreen model, but they don't have a Stinson V-77
