Masks for the American insignia 1947 to the present, part 2, 1:72, Armycast

A die-cut self-adhesive masking set for spraying the American aircraft insignia in 1:72 scale from the Czech maker Armycast. The designation part 2 means that the set follows on from the first part and brings further sizes of the same type of insignia. The mask is stuck on a dry finish, oversprayed with the colors of the insignia, and once it is lifted off a sharp, perfectly flat motif remains, without the carrier film a decal leaves behind.

The markings

The present-day form of the insignia came about on January 14, 1947, when a red bar was added inside the white rectangles at the sides of the star. The resulting star-and-bars marking in blue, white and red is still used in this form by US military aviation today, so the set covers machines from postwar piston and early jet types through to modern equipment.

Use and tips

The base has to be smooth, clean and perfectly dry; on a rough matte surface the paint will creep under. Transfer the mask onto the model, press the edges down carefully and spray in thin coats at right angles to the surface, never at an angle under the edge. Apply the colors from light to dark and lift the film off while the finish is still fresh, which reduces the risk of tearing the edge. On curved surfaces it helps to warm the film slightly so that it settles without wrinkles.

Who the set is for

  • builders of American military aircraft in 1:72 scale
  • modelers who prefer spraying to decals
  • those who build models of postwar and modern equipment
  • anyone who wants to add further sizes of the insignia to the first part of the set

It is a masking accessory, not a model. The model, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

No. These are self-adhesive die-cut masks. The insignia is sprayed in paint directly onto the model, so no carrier film is left on the surface.

Machines from January 14, 1947 onward. That is when a red bar was added inside the white rectangles, and the insignia has been used in this form ever since.

The set follows on from the first part and holds further sizes of the same type of insignia. The two parts complement each other and are not substitutes for one another.

Count on a single use. After being lifted off, the film loses its adhesion and the precision of its edge, so plan it for a particular model.
