About product

Messerschmitt Bf 109E-3, masks for the angular canopy of the Emil

A set of shaped masks for the windscreen, the hinged middle section and the fixed rear part of the glazing of the Bf 109E-3 fighter in 1:48 scale.

The Emil in 1940

The E-3 version was among the most widespread Emils of the period of the fighting over France and the Channel. Compared with the earlier form it carried cannons in the wing instead of a pair of machine guns, which meant a harder burst but also a smaller supply of ammunition and a slower rate of fire. A supercharged engine gave the machine good performance at higher altitudes and a rate of climb its opponents long had no answer to. Its weakness remained its range, which over southern England limited the time over the target to a few tens of minutes, and the narrow track of the landing gear, which cost a number of machines on landing.

Straight frames, and still a problem

The glazing of the Emil looks like a rewarding object to mask: nothing but straight lines and flat panes. The catch lies in their number and width. There are many frames, they are conspicuously wide and they run in several directions, so measuring out the individual strips takes longer than the whole rest of the spraying. The hinged middle section also opens to the side, so every inaccuracy is visible in profile on a finished model. Pre-shaped pieces shorten that step to fitting them and pressing the edge down.

Who the set is for

  • for builders of Emils who want a uniform width to all the frames
  • for a model with the canopy hinged open, where the frame is in the foreground
  • under a subdivided camouflage scheme with soft transitions
  • everyone who does not want to spend an evening cutting strips of tape

FAQ

The glazing of the two versions is very close in shape, but the item is described for the E-3. The manufacturer also makes a separate variant for the E-1 and E-3 pair.

This item is intended for the outer side. Anyone who wants the frames from inside too should look for the form marked as inside and outside.

Press the edge of the mask down well with a toothpick and apply the first coat with heavily thinned paint, which seals the edge. The covering coats will then not creep under.
