Thank you very much gents. Primer applied, (Tamiya rattle can as I've run out of Halfords 😱) Some areas need a little more cover but nothing needs much in the way of tidying up, so it's onward to Base coat. Edit: Whoops, hit Post before I added the pics.

Base coat now on and drying off. I had originally Used USMC ForrestGreen, but it came to looking WAY too bluish. Went with Vallejo Russian green instead. Might not be completion accurate but I'm happy with how it's come out. Once it's hardened enough I'll bring the hull together and lock it up. Next colour up will be ithe white. These two colours should account for 90% of overall coverage with sand and black accounting for the remaining 10 (5% each).

Thanks all. Guy, the pics are taken with my phone in the garden under natural lighting. Fluke rather than design for sure.
