1:48 A-10C Thunderbolt II BASIC kabuki masks

A-10C Thunderbolt II BASIC kabuki masks (1:48)

A set of precisely shaped masks of fine kabuki masking film for the plastic model of the A-10C Thunderbolt II ground-attack aircraft in 1:48 scale. The BASIC version covers the essential areas: the canopy glazing, the wheels and other clear parts, and possibly selected camouflage details. It is an accessory for painting, not a kit.

The real subject

The Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II is an American single-seat ground-attack aircraft for close support of ground forces, famous for its tough structure and its massive rotary cannon. The C version is the modernized variant with digital avionics. The flat windscreen and the sliding canopy mask well with sharp edges.

Use

• Peel the masks off the sheet, stick them onto the glazing, the wheels and the clear parts and press them against the edges.
• We recommend spraying the color of the inner frames first and the outer shade afterwards.
• Mask the wheels around the perimeter of the hub, so that the tire stays a different color.
• Once the paint has dried, remove the masks carefully.

Who it is for

For modelers who want to mask the essential areas of a model quickly and cleanly without laborious tape cutting.

The masks are only an accessory for painting. The model, paints and glue are not included in the package.
