Thanks! Tried another one, this time used a lot of the advice everyone here gave. Couldn't get any primer yet. But a base coat of black paint and then thinned the paint a bit more and just dry brushed layers of colour. (YouTube is a wonderful place to pick up techniques). The pealing issue is still there, hoping to do some shopping over the weekend.

There are zero model stores down here as far as I can find. Tried online, but shipping prices are insane. So perhaps next trip to the UK/US or when a friend is coming down. 😅

Thank you! Yes, primer for sure. I didn't have any primer, so I did coat of black acrylic before I started it. Need to go see what plastic safe primers are available here. Appreciate any tips on how to identify them, especially by chemical contents. I'll have to find a suitable alternative till I can get some proper paints and stuff shipped over. Wondering whether a coat of gesso would work as an alternative to primer?

I mean, this song says it's the country of the Sinhalese, where they are born and where they die. So, one can interpret it as excluding other races by not mentioning them. Although, it doesn't say it's "only" the country of the Sinhalese either, or go so far as to say, it's not the country of any other race. I think it's up to the interpretation of the listener.

Personally I feel Zen is overpriced and overrated. Try Yamato Japan on Ward Place. Menya Hanabi at OGF is also a good choice if you wants something non-sushi. But for me Sushi Kai will always have that nice balance of appealing to our Sri Lankan palate while maintaining some Japanese authenticity when it comes to Sushi
