About product

Montex 1:48 Blenheim Mk.I - a masking set

A set of pre-cut self-adhesive masks for a model of the Bristol Blenheim Mk.I in 1:48 scale. It is not a kit or the parts of a model: there are only templates in the package, which are stuck onto the transparent parts and make it possible to spray the frames of the glazing. The cut corresponds to the shapes of the particular Airfix kit.

The real subject

The Bristol Blenheim Mk.I was a British twin-engined light bomber of the second half of the 1930s. It was powered by a pair of Bristol Mercury radial engines, the crew cabin followed on from a short, heavily glazed nose, and a gun turret was placed on the spine of the fuselage. The structure was all-metal and modern for its day, with a smooth skin and a retractable undercarriage. The Mk.I is the short-nosed rendering that preceded the later versions with a lengthened nose.

Usage and painting tips

On a bomber the set is worth buying for the number of frames alone: the glazed nose, the cabin and the turret together mean dozens of small areas, which would take a whole evening to mask freehand. Work in groups - first cover the nose, check that all the edges are pressed down by holding it against the light, and only then continue to the cabin. Before spraying, run a finger over the whole model to see whether a corner has been left unseated anywhere. Spray the frames with a thin layer of the interior shade and, once it has dried, move on to the external camouflage. Leave the masks on the model during weathering as well - that way you will not dirty the cabin with a wash or with pigments.

Who the set is for

  • builders of British bombers of the Second World War in 1:48 scale
  • modelers who do not want to spend hours cutting tape for extensive glazing
  • those who finish a model with a wash and pigments and need to protect the cabin
  • display case models where the glazed nose is the main visual element

The set is an accessory to a plastic kit, which it does not contain. Paints and glue are not included in the package.

FAQ

It does not. These are purely painting masks, which are stuck onto the transparent parts of a kit you have already bought.

The glazed nose, the cabin and the turret have many times more frames than the canopy of a fighter. Masking the same extent by hand takes substantially more time.

Yes, it is recommended. A wash and pigments then cannot get onto the transparent areas.

It is not guaranteed. The templates are cut according to the glazing of the Airfix kit.
