why are model construction instructions so terrible.
At least I had the sense to use as little glue as I dare. It is relatively easy to separate and reglue with almost no damage.
This model of hoopoes, and I assumed , given the number of wings, that was going to be a family group. No, it is just one bird in three-d.
It had some numbering system on individual pieces, like L3 or R5. The pieces were all small variations of a common theme. This really was not helpful until it was far too late
Anyway I managed to do a good job with glue, in that it is trivial to separate again and again. Just so annoying.
However it is finished, and looking surprisingly good.
