sideshow Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 I was nearly finished with the building getting ready for paint. I bought the kit out of the sprues so the wings were noticeably warped. Before gluing on the bottom outer section of the wing I try to use a heat gun to get some of the warp out. I got distracted for a second (a new cut was bleeding all other the model) and apparently the old, brittle plastic got too hot and shrunk up like a piece of bacon. It's already glued to the fuselage and I'm really pissed at my self. Does anyone have this kit in parts or a whole other kit they'd sell me? I really screwed this up. Thanks for looking.

Hooker169 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Sorry I can’t help with parts but there’s a left wing assembly available on EBay. I’ve purchased single spues this way previously. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sideshow Posted February 5, 2021 Author Share Posted February 5, 2021 (edited) That would be perfect! Except I effed up the wrong side...... >.< https://www.ebay.com/itm/ESCI-ERTL-KC-135-GULF-WAR-9122-PARTS-SPRUE-D-PORT-WING-ASSEMBLY-1-72/293943843838?hash=item44706b1bfe:g:qlIAAOSw6rda9PBj Thanks for that though....

Kurt H. Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 I have a bagged AMTECH EC-135N/E ARIA/ALOTS "Snoopy (same kit with a different fuselage) If you are in the US I would be happy to part with it if you still need it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sideshow Posted February 6, 2021 Author Share Posted February 6, 2021 I really appreciate the help, but I'd hate to ruin a whole kit to replace a wing tip. I'd rather just replace the whole kit. Thank you! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
