About product

Masks for the glazing of the Liberator

A set from Eduard for the model of the Consolidated B-24D Liberator in 1:48. The four-engine bomber has an unusually large glazed area from the nose through the pilot's compartment to the waist positions, so masking it by hand takes a whole evening. Pre-cut masks shorten that work to a moment.

The Liberator over the Romanian refineries

The D version was the first production variant deployed in large numbers. It carries the narrow high-aspect-ratio Davis wing, twin vertical tail surfaces and a bomb bay with roller doors. Aircraft of this series went into history with the low-level raid on the oil facilities in Romania in 1943. The crew numbered more than ten men and the waist gun positions stayed open in flight.

Advice on spraying the frames

Spray the extensive glazing section by section and let the paint set between sections, otherwise a run will form on the vertical surfaces. Cover the remaining glass areas with tape or liquid mask as soon as the masks are in place. After removing them, inspect the edges with a magnifier; a small overflow can be corrected with a pointed brush. Apply liquid mask in a thin layer; a thick skin tears when it is peeled off and leaves residue behind.

Who the set is useful for

  • builders of heavy bombers from the European theater
  • modelers bothered by uneven glazing frames
  • anyone interested in the American air forces of the 1940s
  • projects with open gun positions
  • collections of Eighth Air Force aircraft

FAQ

It has a high aspect ratio and low drag, which gave the bomber range and cruising speed. At low speeds, however, it was more sensitive on the controls.

There are many areas and they are small. Cutting tape by hand would take longer than the painting itself.

Scrape a small overflow off with the tip of a toothpick and touch the area up with a brush. With a larger mistake it is better to repaint the glass.
