About product

An Art Scale masking set for the P-51B/C Mustang in 1:48 scale

This is a set of masks from Art Scale for a model of the North American P-51B/C Mustang fighter in 1:48 scale. It serves to cover areas accurately while spraying, typically the canopy frames and other places where a paint boundary would be hard to hold by brush. The name gives the single-sided version; the double-sided version of the same type is a separate item, so you choose according to how you want to approach the masking. The set itself holds no plastic parts. The target kit is Eduard.

The real subject

The P-51B and P-51C are the so-called razorback Mustangs, that is the versions with the raised fuselage spine from before the bubble canopy was introduced. The fundamental change from the first Mustangs was the British Merlin engine built under license, which gave the aircraft its performance at high altitude. It was thanks to that engine that the Mustang became an escort fighter able to go with the bomber formations deep over the continent. The B version was built at Inglewood and the C version at Dallas, and British service listed them under the designation Mustang Mk.III.

How to work with the set

Lay the mask on a perfectly cured and degreased surface and apply the paint in thin coats; a heavy coat creeps under the edge far more easily than several fine passes. The canopy frames stand out if the cockpit interior color is sprayed on first, under the final shade. Lift the mask off while the paint is freshly dry, not after it has fully cured.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers building early Mustangs in 1:48 scale
  • Anyone after sharp cockpit frames without brushwork
  • Builders working with an airbrush
  • Collectors of machines of the American escort fighter force

FAQ

It is not. It is a masking set to be used on an already built or part-built P-51B/C model in 1:48 scale. Neither plastic parts nor paints are included.

The distinction between the single-sided and the double-sided version comes straight from the names of the manufacturer's two items. They are sold as separate items, so you can pick the one you need for your build by its designation.

The set is listed for the B and C versions, that is for the razorback Mustangs. On a later machine with a bubble canopy the shaping of the frames does not fit.

Let the surface cure thoroughly and clear it of grease and dust. On fresh or dusty paint the masking holds worse and the edge comes out inaccurate.
