Success!

This afternoon with a little trepidation I went out to spray the white topcoat on Friede. From my last postings I've had two failures, one with the spray paint and the other I'm guess that I didn't get the mould release off the model well enuff. With a new can of white spray - I was hoping that the second time around would be the charm. And the result was Hooray!  The paint went on without any problems. Some pics tomorrow.

A big Ugh of Friede, plus some new colors

I have no idea what went on with Friede. Firstly, if you remember it was primed and ready for its topcoat of white. I finally got to spraying the white and have no idea what went on with the can. The paint went on like milk- instantly running down the model. Besides that, numerous fish eyes appeared like I was trying to paint on bare, unwashed resin! WTF!
Letting it dry I attacked it with some thinner and nothing... That paint was on there. So next was taking out some sanding sticks and getting rid of the drip marks. That's been done, Plus a rewash and another coat of primer. I found a few more uneven spots which I took care of. I bought a new can of white paint so we'll see what's happens with that in the next day or two.

Re: the new colors. I bought a set of Vallejo Game Colors. I have a few (okay quite a few) smaller scale dinosaur models and the VGC looks like it might fit the bill. I've been watching a few You Tubes vids of "awesomepaintjob" and amazing things happen. I'm sure it's his talent, but the paint goes on great I'll let you know on this too.
