Looking good John, a nice smooth paint job. That Panzer Putty is strange stuff. It does slowly flow and level out so the advice to paint soon after putting on the putty is sound.

Thanks Jim, that top side coat looked far too thick when I put it on, but since it's dried it seems to flattened out .
Yes decided that on the day I would use it I would spray right away.
Seeing Time posts has confirmed the quick use !

How long was that Tim, looks rather frightening !
I remember the last time I put it away covered in German camo colours I was sure they would never be absorbed . Took the top off the other day and it was a shinny black, a bit like the lagoon :smiling3::smiling3:
Not going to be left to give it any time to drip like that I can assure you .:smiling:

Overnight I think John. Nothing to worry about. It just stays fluid and comes off really easily with no residue.
I found it very easy to handle, if slightly strange. It feels greasy but isn’t…….putting it on as a thin layer seems best, pretty much as thin as possible. If you get it too thin and make holes you can easily patch it by adding a bit more. Once it’s on you can refine the pattern by pushing it around in the surface.

Oh don't look at mine Andy, I keep thinking 4 BO would-be ok, in fact had it been taken into service I think the might well have resprayed it .

Right into the carpet - I found that out to my cost.

The strange stuff I use will actually bounce if you roll it into a ball. Something to do whilst the paint dries.

Funny thing is, the ball will bounce, but it will shatter if hit with a hammer…..best to take it off the model first though….

Looks good John. I found it really easy to use.

What - that sounds like a party trick, I need to learn.

Neat looking job with the Panzer Putty John. I'm sure the camo will look good.
