Yeah, that (in retrospect) would have been the way to go. Unfortunately, the horizontal stabs are glued in place already...and those decals aren't coming off. And, 2 dollar kit. I'll build another!

Yep...they are what they are. This one is certainly never going to a contest, so just finishing it up as best I can to chuck on (the back of) the display case.
Pics later. Or at least a pic, if I can find a good angle that hides the tail well. Hehe.

Well, it's as done as it's going to get. Decals were superglued down (not a process I'd recommend!) then the rest of the fiddly bits were attached, few detail parts painted, and here we are: Checked out my stash of Academy kits - it appears that I'm going to need to invest in some 1/72 decals, because none of my boxings have the Cartograph-printed markings in that scale. Pooooooop!

At least now you know for the future and can prepare accordingly! The superglue approach is indeed the 'method of last resort'!
