White primer on some parts.

The propeller reveals an excess of plastic on two blades; sanding will be needed. The rest is perfectly OK...

After a long week-end fully dedicated to martial arts, I'm back with that build...

I'm using Vallejo Wood as a base for painting plywood. Some parts are also painted in black.

Yes...And day is complete now : I've applied Burnt Umber oil paint in quantity with a paintbrush, then after 1/4h I removed slowly the paint with synthetic spons, going always in the same direction. So doing the oil paint gives the effect of nerves in the wood, and you can have darker or lighter wood due to the fact you remove more or less oil paint...

Sure; and if you compare photos, you can see that using oil paint gives a better result than using the acrylic paint only...

Thank you!  :-red

Well, the oil paint is actually drying so I have worked on the brassin machineguns. Lots of details, and lots of little PE parts to glue... But those Spandaus are jewels!
