About product

The interior according to the airframe maker

The interior surfaces of Japanese aircraft had a greenish finish whose tone differed according to which works built the machine. This paint matches the version used by Mitsubishi and can be told from the interior color of other manufacturers even by eye. For a modeler that is an important piece of information: a cockpit is only visible to a limited extent, but the wrong shade in it stands out more than missing detail.

Paint properties

The basis of the paint is a synthetic lacquer, so water-based products are of no use here. Only the thinner of the same brand is suitable, in a ratio you check on a test piece. The volume is 10 ml. The dried layer is hard and stands up to the washes with which detail in a cockpit is picked out.

Procedure for painting a cockpit

  • First cover the whole space in the base tone and deal with the instruments afterwards
  • A dark wash will deepen the shadow in the corners and around raised items
  • Paint the belts and the buckles separately and with good lighting
  • Finish everything before the fuselage is closed; after that no corrections are possible

On a model with a closed canopy it pays to concentrate on what will be visible through the glass and only suggest the rest. The time saved by that decision is better spent on the outer surface.

Additional advice

  • The instrument panel tends to be darker than the surrounding surfaces, so set it apart
  • After a wash, fix the surface with a matte clear coat, otherwise it will smear
  • Paint the seat separately and glue it in at the very end

The difference between the interior shades of the individual Japanese manufacturers is a source of argument even among modelers. If you are building to particular documentation, follow it; if not, this paint keeps to the documented Mitsubishi version.

With a closed canopy, what will be visible through the glass is enough. The time saved is better spent on the outer surface.
