1:35 Divisional Insignia 1940-45

Eduard 1:35 divisional insignia 1940-45 - painting masks

A set of self-adhesive painting masks from the Czech maker Eduard in kabuki paper (washi). It contains stencils for spraying divisional insignia from the period of the years 1940 to 1945 on a plastic model of military equipment in 1:35 scale. This is an accessory for painting which makes realistic sprayed markings possible instead of decals.

The real subject

Divisional insignia were the symbols by which vehicles were marked with their belonging to the individual divisions. They served for quick identification of equipment in the field and tended to be placed in clearly visible spots on the vehicle. A sprayed rendering blends better with the surface and the weathering of a model.

Use and tips

• Lay the stencil on the place where the divisional insignia is to appear.
• Press the edges down carefully, so that paint does not run under the mask.
• Apply the paint in thin coats with an airbrush.
• Take the mask off before the paint has hardened completely.

Who the set is for

• Modelers building military equipment in 1:35 scale.
• Everyone who prefers sprayed insignia to decals.
• Advanced modelers striving for realistic markings.

This is an accessory to a plastic model. The model itself, paints and glue are not included in the package.
