Are you sanding the mating surfaces before gluing? What about using an accelerator? Also, the glue viscosity can make a difference. If the pieces are ill fitting then a gel CA glue will be your best bet.

You can get compound curves if you use a proper form. I made all of my Jango armour masters using Sintra. I used boiling water and dipped the only the area I wanted to work on and locked it in place with ice water. I never had luck using a heat gun as it tends to heat up too large of an area.
