Painting

The gun is ready to be painted. I plan on putting together a video showing that process. But until that is finished, here is an example of how I painted the above model. You can fill the connecting parts with model putty but I didn’t bother with that. I also skipped the primer. I use Vallejo paint. I painted one color at a time on every surface of the gun. I let it dry and then moved on to the next color. I went over each color 2 to 3 times to help fix overlaps and missing spots. Let it fully dry before adding another layer. Once you are happy with the paint job finish it with a spray on lacquer.
