These are some of the supplies that yer gonna need some, Bondo Glazing Putty and Old School Testors Glue.  Cutting and Sanding Supplies are always handy ta have. You'll need some paint too. First make sure all of yer pieces are there. After ya pluck yer pieces off of tha trees sand'em down a bit and check out how yer seems are goin' ta go together.

Note: some of this here stuff that we're usin' is sorta toxic and can really give ya a buzz so moms and dads make sure that ya got plenty of ventilation so little Johnny don't get permanent brain damage.

Now ya can start gluein' yer Rat Fink together. Don't be afraid ta get it on there real good this here is a monster model and yer gonna want ta weld them seems real good.  Now put the front and back together.. sorta smash it together and let the glue sorta really melt tha plastic good. then Tape o'l Finky together.   Let him set up pretty good or even better yet let'em dry completely. Pull off yer tape and start sandin' the seams down so's they disappear. Start with some type of emery board and then ya can go to a fine sanding sponge.

Now take some of that Bondo Glazing Putty and finish off the seams with it buy buldin' over the seams.

You will notice that there is a Big Ugly Seam in Rat Finks Ears. Fill them Seams Up with the Putty.

 Now here is the tricky part: 

DON'T FILL HIS EARS ALL AT ONCE YA GOTTA DO IT A LITTLE AT A TIME OR YOU WILL MELT THEM. This here Bondo Stuff is Radical man.   

Let him set up pretty good or even better yet let'em dry completely and start sandin' the seams down so's they disappear. Yer gonna sor'ta sculpt the seams away.
