Brutal But Delicious - a Purity Seal(ed) Cake
Filling and priming
I hear there are lovely things like filler-primers but I don’t have any of those. I do have Polyfilla though, so I did a bit of that.
Filler is filler is filler right. Right? I’d have liked to spray prime this piece but the clock was ticking and the rain was coming down hard. Rushed and sloppy brush prime it is, then. I regret this haste.
A mercifully drier next day meant I could get the rattle cans out. The first coat a brunt umber graffiti paint, the second some Dragon Red from Army Painter. I’ve never done much with rattle cans other than priming, but it was fun to try vary up the shades, trying to concentrate the brighter red to the outside and the skull design.
The finish is far from perfect. The lack of time saw to that – but it’s also driving me to actually get on with things.
