is there no way to easily overlay an image of the digital camo (like a seciton) and then repeat the steps until the aircraft is complete---i apologize if these are total noob questions, im only a pilot not a repainter

You could do it that way, but that *is* hard.. lol getting them all to match up, not only in alignment, but in shades of colour, as each photo, and even each surface in the photo will show different shades, or be in shaddow, or glare etc. etc.. i prefer to re-draw the scheme mysef, which is whay this particular one will take some time!
