    I’m not really any good with paint but with finishing prints I’ve learnt a thing or two. High build primer and some fine wet and dry will make a huge difference covering up your layer lines.

      Thanks for the advice! I actually can’t see the layer lines with the naked eye unless the model is like three inches from my face.

      Maybe once I’m better at painting I’ll spend a bit of effort on this stuff but I think it’s okay for now.

        You may need reading glasses. I build RC helicopters which have very small mechanical parts. I can’t see any fine detail without reading glasses. I used to just buy them at my local drug store. They have a display with lots of different styles and magnification with text samples. You can try them on and read the text at arms length to figure out which ones work best for you. Also more light in your work area will probably help.
