Started to put primer on, used Games Workshop Chaos Black as a base to see any imperfections, now dusting on multiple thin coats of Halfords white before dusting on a light coat of Appliance White.

Help ma bob!  That was quick work.  Mine's still sitting at the bottom of the heap almost a year on from getting it for Christmas.  Looking very fine indeed.  Is it going to be Blue Steel armed?
