Hey Tom, glad you like it. For primer I used the white Plasti-Kote and before painting the model I taped the primered stripe and when done simply clearcoated everything. I liked it even more because for some reason it came out like a sort of bone white which I thought gave it more of a correct look in conjuction with the silver Tamiya Lacquer I used. Loved the color you chose for yours, you should finish it man
