Wheels look good Chris. Painting the tires is always fun…

Thanks Carlos. Luckily Monogram gave us nice raised rim edges
, so it should not be that difficult with this kit.

Really nice progress!
I do like Rattle can primer too - I don't use it on my builds as such but I do on my Miniatures.... I need to use it more

Rattle cans are your friends! Anyway, the Skyraider looks great!

I guess I'm the only one who doesn't use rattle cans.
Looks great though!

I don't use them much either, it seems I spray my bench and tools more than the model.

You definitely have to have a spray booth John. And a roll of a brown painter paper does not hurt to minimize clean up (Reduces dust getting kicked up and ending up in your paint job as well I might add).

I use it mostly during summertime and early fall when the weather is nice. 99.9% of the time I'll spray outdoors using rattlecan primer.
