Can anyone help with a copy of the instructions please?

The complete set was sold out but I brought the individual pigments but I can't find a copy of the instructions that are included. I quote
?The pigment set includes a step by step guide by Chema Cabrero to assist in creating the effects of stone and cement on models and dioramas. This new set replaces earlier version (ref. 73198)"

The particular problems i am having with a Bar Mills Kit is forming shop bay windows both outward and inward made up of multiple layers. Positioning with say canopy glue which i use for most construction would be much easier.

I find peel and stick included in some kits a hinderance rather than helpful.
How do others view peel and stick issues please?

I found your photographs and your notes very helpful. The more photos the better. I have only just started this kit but fond those dreaded, for me, peel and stick parts. I do wish this system was not used.
Building the main windows for the Coopers Hardware and folding along the etched lines I ended up with the sticky side being the face one and will need painting. I have built lots of kits, many Sierra West, FOS and Bar Mills but this is the first time I have encountered this problem.
Before building the window entrance I considered all possibilities that I could see but could not find a different solution. I considered folding the main frame the other way but difficult without any visible lines to fold along. Also i would still have had the sticky side needing painting for the additional layers.
Have I got it wrong or was that as intended?

Hi Harry
I am finding your build blog very helpful, thanks
Can anyone give me some help on the position of part 37, the larger arch door way, attached to the front bay wall. It says 1 inch below the peak of the front bay wall but the diagram shows a line above the top of the front bay wall. Not sure what is intended. Is 1 inch below the top of the front bay.
