It looks like they cheated a little in the paint shop. The strips seem equally wide all around, hence the perspective distortion. Only a top pic will make the decoration over the nose top clear. They could have used stick-on strips or decals even.
A constant width should make your job a little easier, I think.
Anyway, your repaints do look very good. Thank you very much for your trouble in getting them out so soon and so well.
