I sanded it back today and some spots needed some more filler, just a very thin skim. When this is dry I’ll sand it flat and then mask up for more pri...

@tej It would probably sink anyway, however I applied it. It’s good that this happens because it shows that things are not quite right and more attent...

@wolframmalukker Yeah that sounds good to me. Even if the Explorer shape doesn’t quite fit, you can always use an off cut to glue on where needed. Hav...

@tej Crystalac Brite Tone I think you are looking for. I have still yet to try it also.

@tej Very ambitious, good for you. Now you have built a basic one and gained that essential experience, it’s all doable and I’m positive you can and w...

@poco7 Well it looks like you are having fun and that pleases me. Just remember to take you time and enjoy it. It’s not a race and you will have a gre...

More coats applied and I’ve got sinkage and cracking so more repairs needed. I’ll let it fully dry before sanding back before applying more filler. Th...

@koendb I could really confuse you by saying “You are now cooking with gas” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

First coat of high build primer.

@koendb Now you are cooking. Good luck. 👍

Time for a bit of primer. First I finished masking it all off properly. I have a roll of masking paper and some cheaper masking tape for this.

@darrenking Thanks for the encouragement and the offer to help out. When I get settled in Scotland I’ll give it some serious thought. 👍
