F14A Tomcat - PART TWO

a build story by David W. Aungst

Conclusion
There, you have it. While I do use some minor variations on this process, this is the basic process I use for cockpits. Ten steps sounds like a lot, but in reality they go fast. The longest times are spent waiting overnight for various paint applications to completely dry. If I opt for not doing the gloss coat, washes, and flat coat, the whole process takes two nights -- one to paint the original base color and the second to do the rest of the painting. This timing is for a "normal" one or two seat cockpit. Something like the interior of a B-25 Mitchell will take more time.
