Kit Bash 15mm 1/100 Scale Cargo Ship - TT Combat - Team Yankee
Prime Time!
I always enjoy putting that first coat of primer down onto a kitbashed project, its the first time all the components actually get a chance to blend with one another and you start to get a feel for the piece as a complete model.
In this case, I put down two coats of Chaos Black primer (MDF loves to suck in primer so these kinds of kits require a couple of coats to get a similar level of primer coverage on the wood vs the plastic parts.
With the black in place and allowed to cure completely it was now time to zenith the model while bringing it up to the near-white colour I wanted as the base.
So this time the model was hit with primers while assembled to ensure the paint job looked consistent.
It was worked up from a dark grey, to white. Basically dusting the model from a higher angle.
NOTE!: This type of use with spray cans will add a bit of texture to a model a kind of dusty mottled texture. Which is fine on a steel-hulled ship, but if you don’t want that effect, then airbrushing the zenith will give a flatter and smoother finish.
