1:48 MiG-25 – masking stencils for spraying

This set from the manufacturer SX-Art holds self-adhesive stencils for spraying the color scheme on a model of the MiG-25 in 1:48 scale. The stencils are applied to an already painted surface and the airbrush sprays only into the defined shapes. These are not masks that go onto the canopy glazing. The set is cut for the ICM kit.

The real subject

The MiG-25 is a twin-engine supersonic aircraft with a high-mounted wing, twin fins and angular side air intakes. Its structure used steel to a large extent in the load-bearing parts, because the airframe heats up strongly at high speeds. It existed in both interceptor and reconnaissance form and was one of the fastest series-built aircraft of its day.

Sharp versus soft edge

On modern combat aircraft both kinds of transition are used and the difference is visible at first glance. You get a sharp edge by pressing the stencil down perfectly around its perimeter and spraying perpendicular, in thin coats. A soft, blurred transition appears when you lift the edge of the stencil by one to three tenths of a millimeter — a thin strip of masking tape under it is enough — and spray from a greater distance at lower pressure. Choose one option and keep to it over the whole model, because mixing sharp and soft edges looks careless. Apply the shades from light to dark and let the paint really dry between coats, otherwise it will be pulled off when the next stencil is applied. Remove the stencils once the paint has set, slowly and at an angle back over themselves.

Who the set is for

  • builders of jet aircraft in 1:48 scale
  • modelers who want to choose between a sharp and a soft transition
  • airbrush users with a feel for low pressure and a fine coat
  • those who want the scheme repeatable and symmetrical

This is a building accessory, not a model. Paints, glue and the kit are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

Shim the edge of the stencil with a thin strip of masking tape, lower the pressure and spray from a greater distance. Pressing it down gives a sharp edge instead.

We do not recommend it. Inconsistent transitions look careless, so pick one option for the whole model.

The name of the set does not specify a particular version. Compare the shape of your model's airframe with the stencils before buying.

For the ICM kit in 1:48 scale. The plastic parts of the base model are not included in the package.
