Hello All
I had to assemble the big parts so I can see what parts are missing from my print. Sadly some parts will arrive today .
I wanted to ask a question what is good for finishing petg ?
Some pieces have clear layerlines .I bought a filler auto spray 1k .I wonder what is best for this model?

Re: Renault FT17 in 1/10 scale
Automotive Primer-Filler would work. How is it critical for you to have layer lines? It is quite a job to sand it out, especially with so many small details. You'll need a few coats of primer and sanding between them. If it is your first model, just focus on finishing it and making it run.

Small update with the small details. More is coming in the next few days.
