    Sad to see mate, it was looking great.
    What about a weak solvent on a wadded cloth? Rubbing from the centre outwards?
    A few things may happen:
    it softens the main colors enough to reapply them
    It blends in the blemishes to make them less noticeable , either fixing it or facilitating touch ups
    It removes what you have enough to do it again...

    You could mist over a darker red/brown hopefully blending it in more...

    If you are at the point you feel like giving up, then why not experiment and either learn from it or hopefully fix it the way you want?You have helped a lot of people here mate, time to put that brain to work - you can fix this
