But please if you hear my calls, PLEASE show us the moving ball turret and stand out from the dull B-17 MODELING COMMUNITY!!!

I noticed you didn't use primer for the engine parts before airbrushing them silver. Does the paint stick ok without primer?

[@KumaModels]

There was already a base coat of primer before I applied the black paint on the engines. So I’m just applying the silver paint on top of the black paint.
However, I think Tamiya paint will stick to the plastic well even without primer.

Hello, can I get your help? I’m looking at buying an airbrush for the first time and I was wondering if you knew any beginner airbrush kits that don’t cost too much but work well? Thanks!

[@KumaModels]

My first airbrush was in the Tamiya Basic Sprayworks Air Compressor set. It’s what I’ve been using until it broke down.

[@PirateWorld1]

@@KumaModels thanks for the info, I’ll check It out online :)

[@PirateWorld1]

Hey kuma, what drill bits do you use along with your Tamiya pin vise? I feel like mine are a little dull because it takes a lot of effort to make a hole. Please let me know!

[@KumaModels]

I have two drill bit sets. One is from godhand and the other is from Tamiya.

@@KumaModels thank you.
