Thank you for a great video. Taking the time to prepare my model bodies the correct way before painting may be the biggest thing to take my model builds to the next level.
A very helpful video, this is exactly what I've been looking for! A nice paintjob begins with mastering the basics.

The washing also removes any oily residue from the parts which are from your hands while handling
I use 1000 grit sandpaper. Mild dish detergent and water with a toothbrush and then paint. Nothing more..
Can you tell me which sanding stick are you using to sand off the mold lines?

Im using ultimate modelling products sanders the multipack. The white sanding stick is a 100/180 grit. The grey one is 220 grit.
Thanks for the tips! I’m new at this. How do you keep the sanding lines from showing up in the paint? Does the primer fill them in?

Incomplete answer to your valid question. Polish out the sanding lines with progressively finer grit sanding. Leave the entire body very slightly scuffed.
Great tutorial video brother

OK!
Why do you use a marker before sanding your models

Good question. When the marker is all gone after sanding this tells me that the mold line has been sanded down completely. Hope that makes sense

Ok thank you
What would be the result if I just skip the priming? I sort of short on budget here.

If you use enamel paint, it will work but even then paint will tend to come off the corners and edges.

@@ScaleModellingVideos hey, thanks for the reply, i decide to bought primer too, but I can't afford to buy the top coat. Can I just use some industrial varnish?

@@hovinke Hmmm, It depends. I would say dont use varnish at all, the results will be very inconsistent. Just paint it, and do not top coat it, till you have money for a good gloss coat.

I prefer you do talk, many videos have no narration at all. I'd rather hear you talk than listen to bad music
