I have a Footsore minis Late Roman trumpeter. The part of the trumpet that extends above the hand (not the bell-end) broke off and I need to replace it.
The guy on the right in the middle:
https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0657/9717/products/03LRM100.jpg?v=1417089333I drilled out a receptor for a wire and put in the wire, super-gluing it in.
I figure that a small ball of epoxy putty, flattened a little into a disc, would be the right approach. Dig out a little impression and super glue it on the top of the wire. I think this will do the trick. It will be far uglier than the original masterpiece (I'm a big fan of Footsore's minis) but I think this will do.
My questions are:
1) Is this the right approach? Any other ideas?
2) Are these the right materials (glue & epoxy putty)?
3) How to keep them from rotating or wiggling out and coming free?
Thanks for your ideas. I've never sculpted before and would like to learn from everybody's experiences.
