This is experiment #1. I used Elmer's wood filler and dabbed it on with a flexible makeup brush (stolen from the wife). I pulled the foam from the tip leaving just the plastic applicator. I also find these brushes work great in the right situation to apply dry pigment or pastel.
The problem I had is that the filler could not be spread. It would not stick to the plastic and would clump up. So I then soaked an old paint brush in water and smeared it into the filler. This seemed to work with a little patience.
I had to let some of the water evaporate but before the filler dryed I then used the zimmerit tool.
After the filler dryed completly I used a can of spray paint to put some paint on just to get an idea of what it would look like. I know not a very good paint job, it's an experiment.
Next experiment I will paint the plastic first to see if the putty will stick better. Which brings up one more question. When zimmermit is chipped of, what color shows underneath? I have seen models with the red primer showing and some had the base color showing such as Dunkelgelb. Which would be correct? Any suggestions on anything above? Looking for any comments before smearing this all over my Tiger.
