silverkite211 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 (edited) Space heaters will accomplish the same thing. Ask me how I know. Though in my case I was trying to speed up the curing time of paint. To add insult to injury I managed to do it twice, to two different models.

Chris Jephcott Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Some viagra will sort out that limpness in no time at all... What a cock up. Thank you for learning this so I don't have to!! In all seriousness, what a pain. Oh well, you live and you learn! But it would be interesting to see if you could finish it from here!

Vulcanicity Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 If you over-heat it, it bends. Ergo, put it in the freezer and it'll straighten up again. Or is that the wine talking? Never mind, hard luck mate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy Smith Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 OK, I rushed it. I got the fuselage halves together, smeared a bit of Tamiya putty along the seam and then popped it into a warm oven to get the putty to harden more quickly. Hardly a Work in Progress anymore!!Anyway, here she is. Hope you like her and if you want to know anymore about techniques like this, then please ask! I´m getting really good at cocking things up recently! Hi Mark as it's an Airfix kit you may be able to buy some replacement parts.... they may take pity on you. And if you want speed...superglue and talc. line of SG, sprinkle with talc, make sure you work before it sets rock hard.... HTH T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

easyAl Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 You should mount that with a plaque that reads "So long and thanks for all the fish." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurry Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Busdriver, I use Testor's modelling putty. Look into a tube or two of their putty. It dries relatively quickly, I have found. Regards, Hurry/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nimrod54 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Stick the wings and tail on it then sell it to the Tate Modern. You should get a fortune looking at some of the work in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyG Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Looks more a sort of 'boing' now, rather than a Boeing. You have to finish it, just for the fun factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heloman1 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I once put a Heller Tunnan in the micro-wave oven for 30 seconds on low to get the Compucolour paint to dry. It worked! I also saw the results of leaving a kit on the back parcel shelf of a VW Beatle in the hot African sun! Not the same as the parts that wentinto the box!
