Build and paint it like any standard resin kit. So yeah prime it. You may also consider using five minute epoxy to glue if you typically use cyanoacrylate type of glue.

I haven't got the article in front of me - but MAYBE that was due to the material - coldcast resin & brittle.

Good luck - and how about you finally share a WIP with us dude? (I've never seen a WIP of this here).

I agree with Heavy Metal Spike... please share your WIP pics. I will be working with this type of material in an upcoming project and nothing says "pandemic quarantine" better than a good predator build.
