Hilux progress

Did some part clean up and priming of the chassis and driveline parts for the 1992 Hilux model by Aoshima.

I'm using Vallejo Model air primer and paints on the kit. I'm also using the Vallejo Chipping medium. Don't know if I like it. Seems to leave the area that is wet and chipped with a gloss finish after the "chipping" is done. hopefully when It will even out when I flat coat the kit and add some weathering.


Parts


Checking fit





Primed



Rust color base coat





I didn't like the finish of the chipping medium... was kinda thick and it sprayed thick... looks ok.
