Our winter warm snap provided a window in which I could prime the Shifter. Prior to priming I repaired a few fallen details (Super Glue wasn't so super after all...) and Dremel'd out a bit more space in the tender for the new decoder. I masked headlights, motor, electrical connections and a few other places, then set the boiler on a home made stand. The other parts I sprayed on a turntable or held by the tape. The Tamiya Fine Surface Primer, Gray, laid down well and smoothly. That's a big worry off my mind! Up next...will I airbrush the black or paint by hand? We'll see.
The primer really makes the details on the boiler stand out, and emphasizes that this loco is going to look quite good.
