About product

Mask set 1:35 Object 490B from SX-Art

A set of precisely cut self-adhesive masks in 1:35 scale for the Soviet experimental tank Object 490B. It is not a kit, but a masking accessory for a model. The masks are laid on a part-built model and hold a crisp boundary of the spray even on the circular tire bands of the road wheels and around the vision ports, where masking tape is hard to shape.

The real subject

Object 490B is one of the Soviet experimental designs for a new generation of tanks from the late period of the Cold War. It was a project with an unconventional layout of hull and turret, looking for a different route from the production machines of the day; it never reached series production. For a modeler that is interesting precisely because there is no established camouflage scheme for it: it offers room for an interpretation of your own, but also greater demands on the cleanness of the spray, because the surface is very broken up.

Usage and painting tips

Degrease the surface before laying the mask on and let the base coat cure thoroughly. Carry the mask with tweezers and press it down all around with a wooden toothpick, especially where it passes over an edge. Spray several very thin coats; one wet coat bleeds under the edge. With prototype vehicles a simple single-color scheme with modulation of the shade pays off, because the shape of the vehicle is striking enough in itself.

Who the set is for

  • Collectors of Soviet and Russian prototypes and experimental designs
  • Modelers building armored vehicles in 1:35 scale
  • For those who want a crisp transition between colors without cutting tape by hand
  • For work with an airbrush and for models for a display case

This is an accessory for a kit, not a model. The kit, paints and glue are not included in the package.

FAQ

It is not. It is a set of masking templates, that is an accessory. The kit has to be bought separately.

A Soviet experimental tank design from the late period of the Cold War with an unconventional layout of hull and turret. It never reached series production.

There is no established scheme of the period. Most modelers choose a simple single-color finish with modulation of the shade, which does not compete with the shape of the vehicle.

Degrease the surface, press the mask down all around and spray several very thin coats instead of one heavy one.
