Paint very soon Paul
Got a cash injection thanks to my birthday today, so I'm going to stock up on primer, varnishes, paint and the like just in time to finish this build
Got to say for a £25 kit that looks poor on the sprues this one has been fun to build so looking forward to painting it

Looks good Ian. Glad you had fun building it. You must have shipwrights blood in you.

Spent some time mounting bits on sticks ready for the paint shop. When I get home tomorrow I’ll give the girl a coat of primer then we can see what she’s going to look like with paint on her. Pics tomorrow then

Obligatory primer shot, no build should be without one

Had a good think about how I'm going to paint this and finally figured how best to do it. Had to order some 18mm Tamiya tape to do it which should be here soon

Smooth primerage Ian!

Ok believe it or not the deep sea grey paint is on, very similar to the primer but smoother. The life rings and main machine gun are in primer the rest is deep sea grey  Next will be the light grey but I need my tape to turn up before that happens First time with my Neo and I loved it. My other Iwata is a single action where the Neo is double, much better

Hard to see the difference, easy to see the quality of the work!
