Hi, I'd like to paint the hull to one u-boat. It is possible I need to apply a primer into the surface, but the question is I donīt know what is the color or the method to apply the primer surface.
I see the product tamiya primer white (in spray) or grey.
Tha colour final to the hull is dark grey and white, ...what is the primer colur to prepare the initial surface in order to paint the previous colours?

Thanks

Thnkas, Jonathan, Ok I'm going to use the light gray in order to primer the surface. Thank you very much.

Holla Miguel!

I would sugest the Grey primer!
It will cover the surface nicelly and is a good base for your colours!
Keep us updated on your work on the warship forum

Gracias,

Skipper

Skipper, of course, In this moment, I'm working with the deck in order to transform the u-bost type VIIb to type vIIC, because originally the revell model is the type VIIb.

I'm trying to add several elements, for example with evergreen styrene around to the hull cell, drilling all the holes, and more things.

In the ships forum I will have updated my model, donīt worried.

Thank you very much.
