With all the mess I made with Vallejo Surface primer, I decided to do some practice, before I continue with painting the proper model. I begin to understand its behaviour...
I know - I should have practiced before I started in the first place
But I thought:"How hard can it be..." (from the series:"famous last words")
Repaired/remade some pieces that I'd broken and masked the fittings that are to be painted next.
Added more coats on the hull. With the price of Tamiya spray cans, my hull will be the most expensive this side of the galaxy
. But they ARE so easy and fun to use
Observation: Even with a number of layers (primer, base coat, paint coats) and weeks of curing, just touch the surface with a fresh drop of Tamiya paint and all coats will instantly dissolve under that drop and a bright white spot of exposed plastic will show
I wanted to fix a little imperfection, I did...
