Roman nice progress, what kind of primer are you going to use?

hey,

I dont use standard primers, I have one revell acrilic paint: stone gray, i think is 36265...

I always use this color for primer.

You can see that paint on last picture, it's on the right side of picture

Cheers,

Roman

Interesting Roman what do you use to thin the Revell paint as it is too thick to spray directly from the pot?

Hey Vaughan,

I always mix acrilic paint with destil water... nothing else, and ratio is about 50-50%.

For my oppinion, primer is used for seeing errors on model, and many times when plastic is no cover with paint you cannot see errors (i mean gaps, panel lines, etc.)

And when I "inspect" model and I'm sadisfied with look, put color on it, but if I see some error I can easily put more putty, sand or do something on that acrilic paint.

This is my way

here you can see primer and preshade

also must say that this color STONE GRAY is really good color, because is always different from plastic color... and you can see everything when you spray it on model

Now I have doubt... searching for that plane reference on the net, cannot found anything. Just 1 picture of Alfred Grislawski when he sitting near the rudder of this Bf-109.

I see on some art underside capotage is paited in yellow, on other art no yellow color?

Can someone help me?

Hi Roman

Thanks for the info on the paint. Steve(stona) is your man on everything about 109's. I'm sure he'll be on line at some point today.
