The bust was primed in its entirety in Tamiya Fine Surface Primer-White. Using this superb pri- mer allowed me to kill two sub-steps with one spray session: the flesh and the non-jacket gar- ments were also undercoated as well as primed!
Thus uc'ing is largely limited to the black of the dress tailcoat. Which, given the opacity of black acrylic, is something to be undertaken with caution. I have just completed Phase I, which means 85-90% of the coat is undercoated--the remaining 10% (Phase II) will be the harrowing "cutting-in" of the coat to the white underlying garments.
FOLLOW-UP. . . Phase II is DONE!
