lol i also wan to use surfacer if possible de la but i cant get any surfacer 1200 in bottle unless i buy the spray tin one la but everyone knows that the spray for the tin is useless right... haiz... i only gt surfacer 1000... somemore when im doing my freedom i don have much time... only gt 2 weeks so i save time by not using surfacer lor but as what u said that im now a bit regretted ad cuz the paint at the wing there started to chipped off ad due to reposing from closed wings to HiMAT mode for a few times ... just inner part la outer part ok...

besides,top coat is very important... my MG freedoms' wing cannon's white part now also gt a bit stained with the blue paint due to the blue colour chipped when the white and the blue parts scratches each other when i open-close the wing ... haiz... i sprayed the top coat too thin i guess... not dare to touch or move it anymore

use mr putty deluxe...

well honestly im nt so sure bout the name of the product but the putty im talking about din't comes in tub... it comes in a packet and the putty consist of 2 colours(light green and white) which u have to mix them together with some water...

hehe honestly i myself haven use it before too

seen some tutorials from youtube last time....

modeling paint is kinda hard to level using brush for a newbie therefore u cant ensure perfect uniformities from hand brush paint... AB is the best but in some ways, spray cans can perform better than AB..

btw, do primer using hand brush is ridiculus for newbie...

thers other way, that is by using putty but cement is easier to use ... perhaps u nid to pick up some skills ...
