After few days of taking my sickly sweet time building this kit, it’s starting to reach the finish line! This is the updates of failures…With perseverance I got to fix them
Broke the Menu Holder. Fix it with glue craft, lil tissues. Sanded it a bit and painted it bright yellow. Not the best looks but it’s strong to hold on its own
Tried coloring Pedestal in yellow but the result irked me so scrubbed the yellow and repainted with similar shade of the original beige brown and defined it. I promised you all it doesn’t look as worse as it is in picture
I dislike the cupboard sticker look for the Showing Cabinet, scrap it and colored the rest light-ish blue and drew the black handles on both side. I insert this in my failures because the choice of color
I honestly think everything looks perfectly fine and has its own unique character to it. I 100% feel you because we are our harshest critic but working on these kits have helped me so much in that regard.
Wow, huge respect for your perseverance!
Honestly, fixing broken parts, repainting when something doesn’t feel right, and even redoing sections shows real skill and patience. The yellow menu holder fix sounds super creative, and customizing the cabinet instead of using stickers is such a bold move ~ that’s real DIY spirit! Every adjustment adds character and story to the final piece. Can’t wait to see the finished build in your next update
Now get some rest ~~~ you’ve earned it
Don’t be stress, take your time and don’t worry about the mistake every problem have their solving path… be happy and you already solved the problem at the end, congratz I believe that you can have a great ending, looking forward for your completion
I can relate of this. I broke the horse in my carousel and wrongly place the plastic in the window of my Christmas place. I’m still annoyed whenever I think of my mistakes. But I think it’s part of the process to improve ourselves in the next kit that we will be making so don’t be harsh to yourself.
I think you’ve fixed your mistakes well. It looks nice. The problem is, when you build something yourself, you see all the mistakes every time, but others often don’t even see them
