Hi Spiros and Erik,
the primer worked beautifully.Indeed one needs to clean the airbrush immediately after use,and with the proper solvent.
I will try next time to add some water to it as to prevent layers at the bottom of the cup which may add to the cleaning process.
Tks for your comments!

That putty is totally cool. Fit is the one problem with this kit, and since those raised rivets are correct for a T-6, it's always troublesome to get that centerline seam filled, knowing the detail that will be lost.
That red looks great, my friend @mvtb! Looking forward to your next steps!
Tks for comments guys.

Love those distribution cables, my friend @mvtb!
Looking good.
Marcus, @mvtb
It has been a while since I have commented on your T-6. I have been looking at your posts, and you have made some wonderful progress. By adding the spark plug wires to the engine, and paying attention to of the little details like this will make your build stand out from the rest. It is really looking good, and I am looking forward to seeing your next update. These Monogram T-6 / SNJ kits have been around for a while, (late 1970's / early 1980's I'm guessing) but they still look very good, as does yours.
Tks for the kind comments my friends!
Lots of small details repainted,engine painting finished plus wash,and the cowling is installed...next Future for the decal application...:
