About product

Sherman wheel masking set in 1:35 scale (Quickwheel)

This is a sheet of self-adhesive masks cut for the wheels of the Sherman tank, not a kit and not a set of replacement parts. The set is intended for the kit from Italeri. That detail matters with Quickwheel sets: separate sets are cut under the same Sherman name for other manufacturers' kits, differing precisely in which kit they are cut for. Wheels vary in size between manufacturers, and a mask from one set will not fit another model exactly.

Painting the running gear as a whole and the part the wheels play in it

It pays to treat the running gear as one task rather than as a collection of small jobs. The order that works looks like this: the primer over the whole hull and running gear first, then the rubber shade on the wheels, then the masks and the rim color, and only at the very end the tracks, which are dealt with separately. The wheels are the most sensitive point in that chain — there are many of them, they are identical, and every deviation adds up on them into a visible irregularity. Once they are done cleanly and quickly, the rest of the running gear is just a matter of a wash and dust. That is exactly why a masking set repays itself most on vehicles with an extensive running gear.

Procedure and tips

  • Work all the wheels at once rather than one by one — the paint then sits the same on each.
  • Before applying the mask let the rubber shade cure, not merely dry.
  • Remove the mask shortly after spraying the rim, while the paint has flashed off.
  • Once finished, even the rubber-to-rim border out with a dark wash.
  • Apply dust and mud only after the whole running gear is finished, not on individual wheels.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of American armored equipment in 1:35 scale.
  • Modelers who paint a running gear with an airbrush and want the wheels uniform.
  • Those looking for a shortcut on the most laborious part of a build.

The package contains masks only. The kit, paints and thinners are not part of the delivery, unless stated otherwise.

What works is a primer over the whole running gear, then the rubber shade, then the masks and the rim color, and the tracks separately at the end. Dust and mud come right at the finish.
