Jon Snow - Painting: Priming and UCing

Much as the subject was given a second lease on life earlier last year, the time has come to re- surrect this project as the onion of Jon Snow's past--and future!-- is frenetically peeled before us on the magnum opus that is the HBO series

In my last posting, I had primed the bust (Tamiya Fine Surface). Well, since acquiring Badger's Stynylrez primers, I decided to reprime and undercoat the torso using their black primer. An absolute joy! Quick, easy, eminently controllable, and eminently economical: as I said, an absolute joy! 

The torso is now curing in the oven. It will be on the painting bench before dinner. . .

More to follow. . . 

FOLLOW-UP. . . The bust is now completely UCed.

When the cost of a hobby exceeds the fun and doesn't attract new people, the game is over.” -
