1:32 Hawker Hurricane Mk.Iic and Mk.IIb EXPERT masks

New Ware 1:32 Hawker Hurricane Mk.IIc and Mk.IIb - EXPERT masks

A set of cut self-adhesive New Ware masks in 1:32 scale for painting a model of the British Hawker Hurricane fighter aircraft in the Mk.IIc and Mk.IIb versions. The masks are punched from thin kabuki (washi) paper with a fine adhesive that holds on the glazing and leaves no marks. It is not a kit and not a finished model - it is an accessory that makes a clean coat on the transparent parts and other surfaces easier. The EXPERT designation is the most complete level of the set.

What the set contains and how to use it

• Masks for the cockpit from the outer and the inner side including the frames of the glazing
• Masks for the wheels, for a clean separation of tire and hub
• The EXPERT level is more detailed than the BASIC and ADVANCED variants
• You stick the mask onto a clean, degreased surface, spray the paint and lift it carefully once it is dry

The real subject

The Hawker Hurricane was a British single-seat fighter aircraft of the Second World War and, together with the Spitfire, a key machine of the Battle of Britain. The Mk.II version was powered by a Rolls-Royce Merlin XX engine. The Mk.IIc carried an armament of four 20 mm cannons, while the Mk.IIb was armed with twelve .303 caliber machine guns. The Hurricane served on many fronts from Europe to North Africa.

Who the set is for

• Modelers building the Hurricane in 1:32 scale
• Everyone who wants sharp transitions of paint on the glazing without laborious taping
• Advanced and moderately experienced builders working with an airbrush

This is a set of masks, not a model. The kit, paints and glue are not included in the package. The masks are cut for a particular model of the given aircraft in this scale - before buying, check that they match your kit.
