I'm going to scrape off all the silver paint up to the panel lines, so there hopefully shouldn't be any ridges.Here’s to hoping you won’t see a ridge along where the silver came off, though.
Hi Chris when using Silver or any of the metallic colours it shows up better on a gloss black base.HI Ian enjoyin your mustang build so far an I know this a bit of a stupid question but why do you guys spray the model black ? as your answer hopefully will help me on my future builds of my kits . Please remember im fairly new to plastic kits
In this particular case I can see the point of black primer: under metallic paints, it can give the colour more depth.why do you guys spray the model black ?
I've had that happen with my last two builds - a touch annoying. The Jet Provost was a pain to fix, the Blenheim, I lost interest in fixing so turned it into an all black night fighter. Lazy, idle - yes...Parts of the silver have pulled away
Not sure if it's the primer or the fact the plastic was too smooth.I've had that happen with my last two builds - a touch annoying. The Jet Provost was a pain to fix, the Blenheim, I lost interest in fixing so turned it into an all black night fighter. Lazy, idle - yes...
This time I've also given the plastic a slight texture by giving it a little sanding. so we'll see later.Now then, the last two problems I had with paint lifting were both Airfix kits. And now this ? We've both been building for a while, so it's not like were new to this game. I'm certainly not doing anything different.
