I found this primer to, but I don't know if it works :

I put the first layer of wood filler :

to apply it, I mixed it with water until it was a little liquid, then applied it with a brush
I just have to wait two hours, «*paint*» the otherside and sand again ! :D
Do you think I’ll need to put an other layer ?
If it’s the case, did I need to sand between the two layers ?
After an hour of drying, I covered the other face of the body

Regarding the face made before, here is a photo of the rendering, I do not know if it is normal (drying unfinished or because it is not serious as I will redo the sanding) or because I put too much water in the wood filler, but it is very far from being as uniform as when I put it, reassure me! haha

Here's 2h30 after applying

The garbage bag on which I painted has left its traces! :c

Looks good. I'm sure that is a normal drying pattern- the different densities of the grain in the wood are letting some bits dry out quicker than others.
I wouldn't worry about the garbage bag mark, you will sand off most of that again anyway.
That's what I thought internally but I do not hide you that you reassure me anyway! haha
I will sand tomorrow morning, it is a little too late to make noise (01:34 AM in France) and I will send photos directly after!
Currently, my search for primer is inconclusive, I still do not know if my painting would hold on the primers that I spotted, after asking a few contacts! : /
Its best to let it really dry well anyway before you sand it.
It is difficult to help with paint recommendations because I have no idea what is available in your area.
As a general rule though, most spray paint has a version that is primer, colour and clear. You jsut need to make sure you use all the same kind and it should be fine. I would look for somewhere that sells automotive products, acrylic lacquer is easy to use and will give good results if you are patient.
Don't be scared to give something a try, its the best way to learn. The worst thing that can happen is you need to sand it off and start again (we've all been there)
I went to a car store today asking if their bombs would work, they told me no and sent me home. Haha
So an acrylic primer will works with nitrocellulose paint ?
I found a varnish who worked with my paint (normally)
Sorry, I have no idea, I've never tried it. The nitro product should also have a primer available. Otherwise you might need to experiment on some scrap first.
