1:32 Nieuport Ni-11 Belgium

Omask 1:32 Nieuport Ni-11 Belgium

This is a set of precisely cut self-adhesive masks intended for an airbrush. It does not replace decals, but lets you spray the national insignia and the markings of Belgian service directly in paint, so that the result blends with the surrounding finish and no glossy step appears as it does with decals. The masks are cut to fit a particular plastic kit of the Nieuport Ni-11 in 1:32 scale.

The real subject

The Nieuport 11, nicknamed the Bébé, was a French single-seat fighter sesquiplane of the First World War. It was powered by a rotary engine and thanks to its agility it was among the effective opponents of German aircraft in 1916. It served with a number of Allied air arms, including the Belgian one.

Use

• Peel the individual masks off the backing film and transfer them onto a base coat that has already been sprayed and has dried.
• Press the mask down carefully around its perimeter, so that no paint runs under the edge.
• Spray thin coats of paint and carefully take the mask off once it has set.
• Ideal in combination with an airbrush and thinly thinned paint.

Who it is for

• Modelers who prefer sprayed insignia to decals
• Builders of aircraft of the First World War in 1:32 scale
• Anyone interested in clean markings with no glossy decal film

It is a modeling accessory (a masking film), not a kit. The model, paints and glue are not included in the package.
