Now. This is the bit you need to read. This is resin, not injection plastic which means you need to do some work. Its easy just follow these rules.
1) Wash the parts in hot soapy water to get rid of the release agent. If you dont your paint will not stick!
2) There is some flash or moulding plugs to remove. There always is with resin. Work carefully with a sharp blade and wet and dry sandpaper. Work outside and wear a mask! Ideally work the item underwater.
3) Prime using Halfords grey primer
4) Fill any small bubbles with model filler. Milliputty is great if there are any edge defaults. Humbrol tube filler is best for the bubbles
5) Sand down filler with wet and dry.
6) Prime again!
7) Paint!
8) Use Super glue to attach to your model ( use uhu glue for the fabric, superglue bleeds through!)
Parts are made to order so allow three days for dispatch.
And enjoy!
