Responsibility details are not available.
A mask set from SX-Art in 1:72 scale for a model of the MiG-29 in its late production form. It is a set of self-adhesive masks cut to shape for the glazing and other areas of the model, not a kit. The masks are cut to the GWH kit in its late version, so they fit the shape of its canopy and the framing gains a crisp edge without any cutting of tape.
The MiG-29 is a single-seat twin-engine combat aircraft with two separate air intakes under the wing roots and twin vertical tails. Later machines of the basic series differ from the early ones in details of the airframe around the spine and in the equipment; it is for those that this set is intended, as the designation in the name states. The large bubble canopy with its few frames is clearly visible on a model, and an uneven paint edge will not hide on it.
First degrease the clear part and let it dry perfectly; keep your fingers off the visible surface, as a print shows through the paint. Lift an individual mask off the sheet with tweezers or the tip of a scalpel, lay it on the glass and press it down from the center toward the edges so that no air bubble is left underneath. Then run a toothpick around the edge as well, because it is exactly how tightly the edge seats that decides whether the paint transition will be crisp. Spray thinly and in several coats, as a thick coat tends to tear away beyond the edge of the mask when it is peeled off. A proven sequence is to spray the interior shade of the cabin framing first and only then the covering outer color. Lift the masks off shortly after the paint has dried, not once the finish has cured completely, because after a longer time the adhesive comes away less easily.
