The set Paint Masks For Fish Camo Pattern Long WW I in 1:32 scale contains an elongated counterpart of the fish-scale pattern for painting a model of a First World War biplane.
Responsibility details are not available.
The element of this variant is stretched out lengthwise, so the resulting artwork comes across more dynamically and follows the longitudinal surfaces of the fuselage better than the wider counterpart. The package consists of one sheet of pre-cut parts of a thin, semi-transparent material. It bends over the rounded spine and over the wings, and after gentle peeling it can be used a second time, because it leaves no staining on the finish.
While the national insignia of aircraft were prescribed, camouflage tended to be a matter of a unit's customs or even of the taste of the pilot himself. The repeating scale pattern was created by hand and its purpose was to obscure the outline of the covering when seen from above. That is exactly why the surviving photographs differ in the density and the size of the element, which gives the modeler freedom in the layout. Regularity comes across as implausible here; a slight asymmetry, by contrast, does the result good.
Work from the wing root toward the tips, so that no unfinished strip is left in the most visible place. Let the rows of elements overlap slightly. Direct the airbrush at right angles, with thinned paint and low pressure, and remove the mask before the finish has fully hardened. Do not throw the leftover parts away; they come in useful for repairing a damaged spot.
