I putting together a bust and have very small gaps in between some of the joints (probably my own fault!). I'm a bit of a perfectionist and I don't think the primer will fill these enough. Any suggestions as to what I should fill them with?

I use magic sculpt for all joint filling. I also use Mike Blanks trick of using some in the hole when attaching figures to their bases.

Like Keith’s suggestion, that’s what I use together with Vaseline to smooth it level
Look forward to seeing the bust

Depending on the size of the gap, I'll use Mr. Surfacer, Tamiya White putty, even though it's made for use with styrene models, or Aves ('ay-veez", as in "birds") Apoxie Sculpt, aka A&B for larger gaps.
Prost!

Vallejo " Plastic putty " looks ideal for getting into all those small places. Think I'll get some and see how I go.
