About product

A-1J 1:48, Masks for the Glazing, Eduard

Pre-cut self-adhesive masks for the glazed areas of a model of the Douglas A-1J attack aircraft in 1:48 scale from the Czech manufacturer Eduard. In extent this is the basic variant of the set: the masks are intended for the outer side of the glazing. Anyone who needs to cover the inner surface of the canopy as well should look for the variant designated TFace, which the manufacturer carries as a separate item. This is not a model but an accessory to a kit.

The real subject

The Douglas A-1 Skyraider was a single-seat attack aircraft with a radial piston engine. The A-1J form is among the late single-seat production versions of a type that kept its role even in the age of jets, thanks to its endurance and to the load of external stores it could carry. The cockpit has a sizeable canopy with pronounced frames, so the painting of those frames is clearly visible on a model.

Usage tips

Wash and degrease the glazing. Lift the masks with tweezers or the tip of a scalpel, lay them on dry and press the edge down with a toothpick. Before painting the outside it pays to spray the clear areas with the interior shade from within; with a single-sided set you have to define the inner edge yourself, with a thin strip of tape for instance. Paint thinly and take the tape off immediately once the paint has flashed off.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers who build with the canopy closed and need only the outer masking
  • Builders of piston-engine attack aircraft in 1:48 scale
  • Those who can make do with single-sided masking
  • Airbrush painting with a requirement for a straight edge

The package holds the masks alone. The kit, paints and glue are not part of it.

FAQ

This variant is intended for the outer side. The manufacturer carries the set for both sides separately under the designation TFace.

It is not. This is a masking accessory to a plastic kit; the parts of the airframe, paints and glue are not included.

For a single type of aircraft Eduard issues several kinds of accessory: masks, photo-etched sets and smaller pre-painted sets. They are told apart by the exact designation of the set, which is what tells you which kind of accessory it is.

They are two late single-seat forms of the same type. The masks are cut to the shape of the glazing of a particular version and kit, so do not mix them up.
