I have decided to operate directly on the tumor.....

The patient is doing well and I will update her status.

Or the third option: leave off the fan, prop, and spinner and set them on the ground, add a mechanic figure, some grass and dirt, and call it a diorama for a forward field servicing.

no reason to be sorry buddy, I thrive on challenges.... and this is a good looking kit.

It's going to look awesome and it has been fun to build.

Ok, another idea, a "spacer" between the cowling and the fuselage. Add some sheet styrene and paint accordingly. Shouldn't be obvious, would it?

if the cowling was one peice maybe, but impossible here.

I'm going to cut the cowling apart and recess the motor back.

Can't you turn it into a Long Nose D9 with some duct tape??

Just kidding, good luck with the surgical part
