1/32 Revell F-14A Tomcat

--------------------

 

I have just completed my first of three 1:32nd scale Revell F-14A Tomcat

This was built completely out of box using CAM Decals VF-111 Sundowners sheet to depict the "Super CAG" from 1985. I used tissue paper painted with Tamiya brown on the instrument panel cowlings to provide a more "Canvas" like appearance. The model was then sprayed with an overall gloss gull grey finish using my Testors Multi Purpose Sprayer. I applied two coats of future using the sprayer before decaling and then another coat of future to protect the markings from the weathering process.

I used the Micro system on the decals. The CAM decals work wonderfully with the Micro products, and fell into the deep panel lines on the surface very nicely. Weathering was completed using a pastel stick that I turned to powder. I mixed a teaspoon if powder with a tablespoon of water and then added some liquid soap.
