About product

Single-sided masks for the Tomahawk Mk.II in 1:48

An accessory sheet with pre-cut masks for building the well-known American fighter in the service of the Royal Air Force. The single-sided rendition means that the outer side of the transparent parts is covered; anyone who wants a neat frame when viewed from the inside too will reach for the double-sided variant. The model of the aircraft from Airfix has to be obtained separately.

The Curtiss Tomahawk in RAF service

The Royal Air Force used the Tomahawk designation for the early versions of the Curtiss P-40 fighter. The machine had a V12 engine with the characteristic long radiator under the nose, a robust structure and decent qualities at low altitude. It was committed mainly in North Africa and in the Middle East, where it became famous for the striking shark mouths painted on the nose. A desert scheme with a hard division of colors is exactly the case where a pre-cut sheet saves the most work.

Masking advice

Store the sheet flat and dry; a wrinkled material holds worse. Before applying, check that the glazing is free of fingerprints. While spraying, hold the nozzle at right angles to the surface, so that the paint does not creep under the edge. If you are working with two shades of camouflage, leave enough time between them, because haste is the most common cause of a damaged frame in masking.

For which builders

  • anyone interested in American fighters in British colors
  • modelers who build the cockpit closed
  • builders of desert camouflage with hard transitions
  • those after the narrower of the two mask options

How many parts the sheet carries and what carrier the masks are made on is deliberately not stated here.

FAQ

This variant covers only the outside. The inner side of the frames will stay in the shade you give it while building the cockpit.

That is what the Royal Air Force called the early versions of the Curtiss P-40 fighter delivered during the war.

The masks are cut for the particular Airfix model; with a different mold the shapes might not fit.
