Dennis,
If I may offer them, here are some thoughts that may help your designing/drawing work...
It would be a good idea to find out and make notes of the moment and overall size specs of all flying surfaces on both PJ's Lanc' and Paul's B-17 if possible. This alone could save you some time. Another thing is to look at the same typical overall dimensions and percentages of a large modern PA Stunt model. Proportionally at least, the two models mentioned above most likely fall into the dimensions of the modern "PA Plane". Combining and kind of averaging all of this information in determining your models dimensions would be ideal.
Here's what I do from there:
Don't settle initially on "The finished model will be this size" anywhere, just have a general idea. Now on your "clean sheet" of paper, draw a centerline and/or a thrust line and mark onto it your desired moment dimensions. Then, draw in the wing airfoil and stab and elevator outlines in their desired locations. This will all end up being for your fuselage and engine nacelle profile view drawing(s). Lastly, also mark where the desired tip of the nose and tail of the model will be. Using these marks as your guide, draw in a Lancaster outline to fit within these parameters. Don't second guess yourself if a true scale outline doesn't jive with your reference marks,
stick to the moment dimension plan as your guide. You can and will "cheat" the scale Lanc' proportions to fit into your determined specs. Just play with it until it looks good, and is "believably" scale. Typically, at least on the fuselage, you will end up "squishing" and "stretching" the outline from scale. I call this eyeball engineering. This is all how you will end up with a stuntable model. You can see that PJ's and Paul's models incorporate these thoughts, but yet appear very scale.
The same sort of process is done with the top view for the wing, flaps, stab, and elevator. I first draw the wing spar line, and then cross it with a model front to rear center line and the moment reference marks. Then, once you settle on the spacing, lay out the perpindicular rib reference lines. Now draw in your Lancaster wing outline using the same process you did with the profile drawing. Do the same for your stab and elevator.
MAKE AT LEAST A COUPLE COPIES EACH OF EACH DRAWING AT THIS POINT.
Once those copies are done, take one each of the side and top views and sit down and figure out how to actually build the thing. What I mean by that is figuring out and drawing in where all of your bulkheads, engine mounts, landing gear mounts, and everything else, will be.
This is all kind of a "nutshell" explanation, but it works for me.
