Slowly coming together. I gave the nose another treatment with putty, and did a base coat of grey. Followed it up with masking, and applying white. The use of white was a learning experience. It took around 4+ coats to get the coverage to look decent. I first applied 3x coats gloss, with around 20 minutes between coats. I was dissatisfied with the look, and think I also overthinned the paint. I let the model dry completely overnight, and then applied 2x coats matt white.
The journey of learning how to thin continues. I noticed the paint reaches a critical threshold where just a few more drops of thinner make a huge difference. I mixed and thinned my paint, put it into the airbrush, and noticed sputtering or small drops being spit around. Diluting further did the trick.
