Hi, How do I paint the structure of the cockpit of the models of airplanes inside, old and new?
I paint, after masking, the whole structure of the cockpit of the interior color but I only make it for the external side.
How should I paint the structure of the cockpit for the part interior, does a way exist of making it?.
I wait for any help...
Thanks.

I don't fully understand what you mean but I guess you wanted to paint the interior of planes right? As with me, I do them before attaching the two halves of the fuselage. I paint the instrumental panels, seats etc. befre assembly. Dry brushing can also be used to bring out the details. As with me, I paint them one by one using teeny pointed items. You can see some of my progs planes in my gallery.

No Shonem.. he means how to paint the inner part of canopies, because he always paint only the external part.Antoniazzip-I usually paint them with a fine tip brush, without making any masks

If you are talking about the frames. What you could do is.
Mask the canopy as you normally would.
Paint the frames with the interior color of the frame whatever it is.
After it dries you can then repaint the frames with the outer color.
As the canopies are clear the first color will show through on the inside and the second will be seen on the outside.
Hope this helps.
