I'm here again!
Added a few more details to the office and repositioned safety belts in a more correct way.

Hi everybody,
I'm back home in Milan and with no grandchildren willing to help me, I was able to mask what was necessary and primed my model, here some pictures:

After priming only one little defect was visible that I tried to sort out with little putty.

For your information, I used a solvent base primer produced by this Italian guy

Colori acrilici opachi a base d?acqua pronti all'uso per modellismo Kcolors.com

The primer I used, sprayed with my airbrush, comes ready for use, is very thin and require several layers to to get a good coat, specially if you want to cover the background color, but finest details aren't covered.

More wil follow asap.

About the propeller I decided to go for the large wooden blades, so I purchased the resin kit from EagleParts.
In the picture they are just fitted to the spinner, that will be painted white (presently is just primed), then a mask for the spiral will be applied and painted black.
