A 1:35 masking set for the Leopard 2A7 tank from SX-Art covers the vision ports, the optics and the lights of the model while it is painted. The edges stay sharp even on the boxy turret full of detail. The set is intended for the Meng kit.
Responsibility details are not available.
It is neither a model nor a part that changes the shape of a kit. It is a set of pre-cut masks for the model of the Leopard 2A7 main battle tank in 1:35 scale, which covers the areas that are meant to stay clear or in another color once the painting is done. It is based on the dimensions of the Meng kit.
The Leopard 2A7 is a modernized version of the Leopard 2 with a boxy welded turret and add-on armor modules. Its optics and vision ports sit in recesses between projecting armor plates, the commander's ring of vision ports is intricate and the headlights are recessed into their covers. That is exactly the situation in which tape cut by hand does not reach the bottom of a recess and paint bleeds under it. A pre-cut piece goes into the recess whole and holds its edge.
The procedure is simple but cannot be skipped: an assembled and degreased model, then the masks, then the primer. Spray the base shade and any camouflage pattern over them. If you are planning washes and dry-brushing, leave the mask in place to the very end, because pigment clings stubbornly in the recesses around the optics and is far easier to remove from outside the masked area than from a clear surface. Take it off as the last step, once the matte varnish has dried, pulling it slowly across the edge.
The package holds masking material only. The model, paints and glue are not part of the delivery, unless stated otherwise.
