About product

Masking stencil: hexagons with a 4 mm side

A universal masking sheet from the SX-Art brand with precisely cut hexagons of a 4 mm side. It is not a kit, nor a mask cut for one particular model, but a stock of geometric shapes that you lay out to your own design. Of the sizes offered, the 4 mm one is the largest and makes the most pronounced, clearly legible pattern.

What can be done with the stencil

The hexagon is the basis of hexagonal so-called digital camouflage, of honeycomb patterns and of imitation netting. It can be used positively, where you stick the cut shape onto a surface and spray over it with a second color, and negatively, where you use the rest of the sheet with the opening and spray only the hexagon itself. A large item suits places where the pattern is meant to be seen right across a display case: on the sides of a hull, on the broad surfaces of wings, on hoods, or on the decoration of a base and a diorama. Putting the shapes into a continuous honeycomb also gives a base for imitating a grille.

Which size for which scale

A 4 mm side corresponds in reality to roughly 14 cm in 1:35 scale, approximately 19 cm in 1:48 and about 29 cm in 1:72. In 1:72 it is therefore already a very coarse block that makes sense only on large surfaces; in large scales such as 1:16, 1:24 or 1:32, by contrast, it gives a naturally convincing camouflage field. In 1:35 it serves as a pronounced pattern legible from a distance.

Usage tips

With large masks, watch the curved surfaces: on a rounded face a flat shape lifts and paint runs underneath, so press it down from the center toward the edges and cut it if you need to. The base has to be perfectly dry. Spray thinly and in two passes; a heavy layer makes a step at the edge. Take the mask off at an angle to the side while the paint is freshly dry.

Who the stencil is for

  • Builders in large scales, where the pattern should match the real size
  • Modelers of modern equipment with hexagonal camouflage
  • Those who want a pronounced pattern legible from a distance
  • Airbrush users working on large surfaces

Paints, glue and a model are not included in the package.

FAQ

A 4 mm side corresponds to roughly 14 cm in reality at 1:35 scale and about 19 cm at 1:48. It looks best in large scales and on large surfaces.

Only in the size of the item. A larger shape gives a coarser pattern legible from a distance, a smaller shape a finer grid. The use is otherwise the same.

Yes, but a large flat shape lifts on a curve. Press it down from the center toward the edges, or cut it if need be, otherwise paint will run underneath.

No. It is a masking aid for painting, a sheet with cut geometric shapes. It contains no parts of a model.
