oh, okay,,,,,,,,not a problem.

Measure your kit's distance from the front of the wing to the back, at the root.

Measure again out near where the Corsair's wing starts to round of near the tip.

Divide each dimension by 20, mark that on each end at the front of the wing,,,,,and draw a line between them. That small area towards the front gets the Fuselage color, the 95% behind that gets the wing top color.

Do a little blending at the very front to blend the front of the wing color into the bottom colors.
