Week 16

The surfaces are complete and now i am ready to apply shellac and ready to paint. Before i applied shellac i sanded the clay surface using a 800 grade wet and dry, this was to make the surface a bit more rough so the shellac can fully be glued and seal the surface of the clay. I didn't sand back the shellac after each coat and the last coat i left it for a whole night to dry before i started applying primer on. The first coat of primer i used is a K&H plastic primer, which apparently sticks better compared to a normal primer filler. I applied 2 coat of that and then applied another 2 coat of 3 coats of primer filler to get rid of any scratches or imperfection. (sanded each coat of primer filler down with an 1200 wet and dry.)
