This is a video of F14A assembly and painting.
The Academy 1/48 scale Tomcat was first released in 1988.
Lacquer paint and enamel are used, and brush paint is acrylic paint.

I am not good at English so please understand even if the sentence is strange.Thank you.

1.Perhaps many people feel that this kit is not as good as the latest F14's cool plastic models.
The kit(1/48 scale) is old and not renewed (as of January 2020), so the F14 kit lacks details compared to other Tamiya and other kits, and the shape of the head has a different curve than the actual one. .
But I've seen this kit in stores as a boy in the 80's, but I have memories I've never made.
The kit reminded me of my boyhood.

2. Air fighters are generally kept clean, but many of the navy aircraft that have been around for a long time are quite dirty. The F14 is a naval ship with four upgrades: A, B, C and D. Operated for 20 to 30 years, the F14, like other naval aircraft, is affected by the sea's appearance and weathering.Of course, there are also many modern naval aircraft that are all kept clean.

3.The middle frame of the Wild Shield is painted. The middle frame of the windshield clear part of the kit was dimmed invisible, probably because the mold is old. So I thought it would be better to mask only that part separately after completion. I was busy with work and it was late. Thank you

F14A 조립과 도색의 전체과정을 담은 동영상입니다.
1988년에 첫 발매된 아카데미 1/48 스케일 톰캣 입니다.
래커도료,에나멜이 사용되었고, 붓도색은 아크릴 도료가사용되었습니다.
웨더링에는 파우더 웨더링도 사용되었습니다.

개인적으로 겨울 기침감기에 걸려서 이번에는
음성 더빙은 하지 못습니다.
시청해 주셔서 감사합니다.
