That’s akin to tucking the table cloth into your shirt, standing up and pulling everything off the table

Yes, it's cruel...
Enterprise 1/350 ... I will not show, for the sake of maintaining mental health ....
To take my time, my son bought a Hummer with a full set of photo-etched parts and epoxy parts ..... and I raised him and educated him ....

Finished this over the weekend, apart from the dozer blade and tow ropes. It came out better than I expected.
Followed some of the advice given by Mr Tank A lot about painting, and shading and it looked really good. Left it all to dry for 48hrs. Gloss, coated for the decal, again left it to dry. Came to flat coat it, and this happened.
Nearly put the whole thing in the bin, as I was a bit peed off. Ended up cleaning it up and, having to repaint the whole thing with a brush, as I lost the paint nozzle from my air brush while cleaning it. I still had some decals and used some spare ones left over from a Tamiya Challenger for the bands around the gun barrel. Now waiting on a replacement nozzle. Oh well!
