Default .:update:.

So today i did the sanding. Tomorrow is the day of priming; that's going to be one long day Before priming thought im going to clean each part even part. rubbing alcohol and shop towel first then tack cloth.

There's no pictures really because all the pieces have a bunch of fine scratches from doing the sanding, but pictures will be coming tomorrow.

Ohh and later on i have a plan to etch in or cut the logo of the AUTOBOTS from transformers.

i want to do it on the front right in front of the 230mm fan and get the blue fan. but id have to cut out the entire from part in front of the fan get a piece of steel cut it to size and paint it then cut out the emblem of the Autobots. Its just a thought i might do it though.

After much practice, I have come to find that bottom to top in horizontal sweeping motions works quite well. It helps to make the paint flow better and allows better coverage

bottom to top helps prevent runs and sagging by going against gavity, instead of with it
