Thought I would check out the original Dunlop bridge and the PSR (ProScale Racing) MDF bridge with MDF lettering I grabbed from Spotlight store today.
What a huge difference and personally the PSR MDF bridge looks much, much more realistic, professional and, well, better even in plain MDF. Remember I still have yet to glue, prime and paint*.
Regarding gluing and painting. I had thought, more than likely will be wrong, so please advise otherwise as my experience with scenery building is nil. I will not be offended.
As I have the bridge built temporarily, should I:
- squeeze PVA glue into the lug holes carefully without disassembling and then prime and paint as one unit,
- disassemble, prime and paint each part separately then assemble and glue, will the glue hold though with the paint?
- feedback, suggestions, recommendations, primer type?, paint type?, clear coat and type?
help and direction badly required, complete newb. I have rotated the image and saved for some reason it inserts like this, sorry. Trying to work out why it isn't inserting as displayed on my screen.
TIA
