1/48 Tamiya F-14D --> B Model, VF-143 "Dog 100"


Recommended Posts

So, this was started in March or April 2021, as part of the F-14 group build. I shifted most of my spare time and energy into earning an FAA Aircraft Dispatcher license, and started at a larger regional 121 carrier in April 2022. Now that things seem to be settling a bit, I've gotten back to my workbench a bit here and there.

 

While still not completely satisfied with my paint and weathering, I'm re-doing major parts of it - for the third or fourth time.

 

You can see previous in-progress pics in the GB thread, located HERE

 

Meanwhile, here is where it stands for now - I re-based much of the dark areas, and also the forward fuselage area. I'm trying a different approach this time - masked off the darker area, and will use a lightened 36320 as a blend coat to lighten the forward fuselage.

 

Thanks for looking.
