F14A Tomcat - PART FOUR

a build story by David W. Aungst

For weathering, I used my typical style of thinned down enamel paint washes and air brush shading. I finished the weathering with some dry brushing to pop out the surface details. For a more complete discussion of what I do to weather my models, see my posting on "Weathering Aircraft".

Conclusion
This Tomcat is one of three Tomcat models that I was building all at the same time. The other two are F-14A+/B Tomcats. As I wrote at the start of this posting, these other two Tomcats are not completed, yet. After a bit of a break from them, I will return and finish both. It will likely be next year before this happens, though.
