After finishing my first project (Airfix Aston Martin DB5), I've embarked on a new project!
It's another starter set from Airfix to help build my confidence in the process - the Jaguar E-Type. It has a much smaller part count than I expected so I'm expecting a relatively quick project time.
Based on some previous feedback, I've used a white primer (Tamiya spray can) this time as a base coat. It's my first time using a primer and a spray can, but I've applied it to areas that are going to have the lighter colours and the sports green. I've applied only the one coat of this, it seems like this will be enough but I'm not sure.
Has anyone else done this model or have any tips for this project?
Thanks all
