About product

Painting masks Curtiss P-40C Tomahawk Mk.IIB 1:48 from AML

A set of painting masks from the Czech manufacturer AML for a model of the Curtiss P-40C fighter, designated Tomahawk Mk.IIB in British service, in 1:48 scale. The camouflage of the P-40 winds across the long slim fuselage and the radiator fairing under the nose, and its transitions are hard to outline by hand; pre-cut masks make sure that the lines join on both sides of the fuselage and that the pattern stays even over the whole model.

The real subject

The P-40C was an early version of the Curtiss fighter with the Allison V-1710 V12 engine, characterized by a large chin radiator. Under the designation Tomahawk Mk.IIB it flew with the RAF in North Africa and it also became the first aircraft of the American volunteers in China. The rugged airframe stood up to hard conditions, and at low altitude the P-40 was an agile and tough opponent.

Tips for working with masks

Start with a dry test: lay the masks on without removing the backing and check that the lines join across the fuselage spine. Stick them on from the nose toward the tail, and on the radiator fairing shape the film in small sections. Spray the paint square to the edge in thin coats and lift the masks off with tweezers at a sharp angle while the spray is still touch-dry.

Who the accessory is for

  • Builders of the early P-40 versions in 1:48 scale.
  • Modelers who want joining camouflage lines with no touching up.
  • Airbrush users from moderately advanced upwards.

These are painting masks, an accessory for painting. The model, paints and glue are not included in the package.

FAQ

Make a dry test first without removing the backing paper and compare the masks with the side view in the instructions. Stick them on gradually from the nose and keep checking the joins.

Not if the edges are pressed down properly and thin coats are sprayed at low pressure. Direct the paint square to the edge of the mask, not against it.

Yes, on a flat base simply press the edges down more thoroughly. The base has to be cured and degreased.
