About product

Eduard 1:48 A6M2 Model 21 national insignia

A masking set from the manufacturer Eduard for a model of the Mitsubishi A6M2 Model 21 in 1:48 scale. Unlike ordinary masks for glazing, this set is aimed at the national insignia. The markings are therefore not applied as a decal but sprayed through a mask directly onto the surface of the model.

A sprayed marking against a decal

A decal is always a thin layer lying on the surface. Under a sharp light it is often recognized by the shiny edge of the carrier film, and on an uneven surface it tends to silver. A sprayed marking has no film, it merges with the surrounding paint and then behaves like the rest of the coat, including any subsequent flattening and weathering. On a model that is meant to look like a worn machine that is a noticeable difference.

What to watch out for

The surface under a marking has to be smooth and well dried, otherwise the paint will creep underneath. It pays to spray in several passes and lightly, because a circular shape has a long edge and it is the edge that suffers most from overspray. A covering white or light coat comes before the final shade, otherwise a saturated color over a dark surface will go gray. Check the position of the markings in advance against the building instructions; on smooth paint a badly placed mask can still be moved carefully, on a flat surface no longer. Remove the mask once the paint has set, not after it has fully cured.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of Japanese A6M2 fighters in 1:48 scale
  • Modelers who prefer sprayed markings to decals
  • Those who weather a model heavily and do not want to deal with the edges of decal film
  • More experienced builders who work with an airbrush

These are masking sheets for painting, not a sheet of decals. Paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

It replaces only the national insignia. Other markings, for example inscriptions and technical labels, are not covered by the set.

According to the name it is aimed at the national insignia. Masking the glazing is handled on this type by separate sets.

First a covering light base and only then the target shade. A saturated color applied straight onto a dark camouflage surface will darken.
