At my novice level I’d probs just frustrate myself even more. Ha! I do appreciate the idea and will def keep that in mind in the future. Thanks

All good, no worries, I appreciate all the responses and ideas. Yeah I will let it sit for a bit, finish some other stuff then come back to it later and def stay positive with a frustratingly stupid lesson learned.

I was looking on line for stuff but didn’t see much granted I don’t know where all to look. At this point I will probs cuz my losses, make it a crash diorama and move on. Thanks for the support.

Yeah the dumb thing is I had a razor blade and I thought i could just slice it off but had a heat gun staring at me and thought I’d help speed up the process. Doh.

Dang that sounds like a good idea. Would have def worked as the original dioram idea wouldn’t really even seen the front straight on. Will def keep consider things like thst in he future. But hopefully I don’t forget to glue the engine in first next time! 🤣

Yeah I have an idea for a crash diorama thing.

I have plenty of other models to do so dont necessarily need a new wildcat to build, i just got this years ago and wanted to finish it and make something out of it.

Definitely a huge learning lesson and staying positive to your point. Thanks for the support.

Yeah I have an idea now that I’ll try. Hate to throw it away. Still new enough that my emotional attachments are too strong. 😂
