Committed a cardinal sin of splashing out on Accurate Armour's big Scimitar when I was a lot younger and a lot richer and had never made a resin model before. What a waste of a very good model.

Whenever I hit a snag while building after three tries I will put it down, go for a walk, have a drink, simmer down and then go back to do it. Most of the time I find I have been fitting it upside down or followed the destruction sheet too closely when there could have been an easier way or a new part had to be scratched for a better fit. I never throw away a kit...it's like throwing away money.

...today.
The fiddly mechanism that holds the breach in place was all on the cock. I just couldn't be bothered with it after a few hours of messing around.
It's in the bin!
The only bonus is that I built so little of it I have all the figures & half the other bits left :rolling:Comment

As I recall, other stuff eventually got mounted on this gun’s carriage, so if/when your scratchbuilding skills improve, you could try making one of those

I've been beaten twice by the Airfix 1/32 Triumph TR4A. Ironic isn't it, given that I fully rebuilt the 1:1 in my avatar...
