Hi guys, almost finished to collect all the gears i needed to start painting.In the previous days i scratched it down with Rotary 80grit and then 120 by hand.

Today i shot white primer, was my very first time painting with a big spraygun, im used to the airbrush for static models.
After 4 hours i wetsanded with 400,applied some filler and then used 220 on filler after it dried.

Tomorrow i will spray another 2 coat of primer.
Till now im very happy how it came out, set the gun at 2,5 bar, 1,4nozzle cheap spraygun,mixed at 5:1:1 at 30% thinner(saving my ani R150-t for basecoat and clear).
I set up my gun with full fan and 2and half turns out fluid, came out smooth, maybe a little dry (pressure too High?), but then i sprayed closer to the tank and the results were pretty good imo.
Any suggestions??

Would like to upload some pics, but cannot figure how to do from mobile phone. :bighug:
