About product

Msta-S 1:35 masking stencils from SX-Art

The set contains self-adhesive masking stencils for a model of the Russian Msta-S 152 mm self-propelled howitzer in 1:35 scale. It is not a kit. The stencils are stuck to a painted and fully cured surface, oversprayed with a second color, and once they are taken off the motif remains, formed directly by the finish and not by the film of a decal.

Why masks instead of decals

A self-propelled howitzer has an extensive hull and a large turret with a long barrel, so markings are placed on it on large flat areas, where every imperfection is visible. A decal wrinkles easily here, a glossy outline remains after it on a matte finish and silvering is a risk. A sprayed motif behaves like the rest of the finish, stands varnishing, a wash and pigments and looks more believable after weathering.

Procedure and tips

The base must be smooth and fully cured, otherwise a mask will tear the paint away when removed. Reduce the tack of a stencil by laying it briefly on clean cloth. Apply the paint thinned, in several very thin coats and with an airbrush at a low pressure at a right angle to the surface, so that it does not run under the edge. Take the stencils off shortly after the paint has set, with tweezers and at a sharp angle. Reckon with single use.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of modern artillery vehicles in 1:35 scale
  • Modelers who want to spray markings instead of sticking decals on
  • Those who go on to weather a model and need a durable surface
  • Airbrush users with basic experience of masking

The package contains the masking stencils alone. A model, paints and thinners are not part of it.

FAQ

It does not. These are a set of masking stencils only; a model and paints need to be obtained separately.

On a large flat area the edge of a decal is most visible and the film wrinkles easily. A sprayed motif is part of the finish, so it creates no edge at all.

A low pressure and well thinned paint in several thin coats. A thick coat at a high pressure runs under the edge of a mask and the edge smears.

The base must be smooth and perfectly cured. A smooth gloss or satin coat under a mask also limits paint running under the edge.
