About product

The American Canberra B-57B and B-57G, markings under the airbrush

A masking sheet for rendering the national insignia and markings of the twin-engine Martin B-57 bomber in the B and G versions in color. The layout of the cutouts is based on the Airfix mold the set is cut for.

An unusual story behind the subject

The B-57 is the only combat aircraft of British origin that the American military adopted in the postwar era and had built at home under license. The basis was the Canberra jet bomber, but the American company reworked it thoroughly: a two-seat cockpit one behind the other under a single long canopy replaced the original layout, the bomb bay received rotating doors and the wing pylons for an external load. The B version became a classic night attack machine, flown over Southeast Asia as well. The later G was a conversion for hunting targets on supply routes at night, when the machine received sensors in an enlarged nose for working in the dark. The high slender wing gave the aircraft good endurance at high altitude.

What the mask is good for

Markings sprayed through a stencil keep the tone of the rest of the camouflage and nowhere create a glossy rectangle of carrier film. That pays off mainly with matte finishes and on the large areas of the wing, where the gloss would show every time you looked against the light.

Who we recommend it to

  • Builders who work with an airbrush and want a uniform surface
  • Those interested in the US Air Force of the 1950s and 1960s
  • Modelers who go on to weather and polish a model
  • Anyone bothered by a visible edge of carrier film

FAQ

The name of the item gives the B-57B and B-57G versions. For another sub-version the set would need comparing against a drawing first.

No, the cutouts have a fixed size matching 1:48 scale.

With saturated colors on dark camouflage it usually pays off, otherwise the shade goes darker. Try the procedure on a piece of scrap first.

With the edge pressed down well and thin coats, yes. A heavy coat of paint creates a noticeable ridge instead.
