A huge amount of filler needed around the hull. Don't rate this humbrol filler  |

Never tried the Humbrol filler mate..........i`ve been using the Perfect Plastic Putty of late, seems to work ok if i`m honest  |

Humbrol can be a tad coarse and not tend to stick down first time round. Perfect Plastic Putty is bloody good stuff though  |

I sanded that filler down this evening, flipping filler was solid, I got the rotary tool on and finished it off with a sanding stick. I gave it a coat of primer which will be rubbed down with fine grade before another coat of primer
Not worthy of a photo shoot but a job well done

Thanks, it was a good feeling to stick something again. I've had a Migraine last two days but I'm over it now so hopefully more soon
