The PDFs for the wraps are on the Lansbergen paper models site here:
https://www.lansbergen.net/eng/index.htm
Use the "models" link on the left and scroll down (don't mind the Dutch!) until you see Mercury Redstone. There are PDFs for the Freedom 7 and Liberty Bell 7 versions scaled for the Estes kit. Also included are diagrams for triming the fins to be more accurate and painting tips for the capsule. All free!
I did have to resize mine to 112% with my Epson printer. Eric has included a first page with a strip so you can get the circumference right. These wraps are incredible! You'll just have to paint the fins. I printed mine on glossy photo paper last night. I am going to give the ink a couple of days to dry before I overcoat and apply with spray adhesive.
