About product

The real subject

The Aichi D3A1, known to the Allies as Val, was a Japanese carrier-borne dive bomber of the beginning of the war in the Pacific. You can recognize it by the fixed landing gear with teardrop wheel fairings, the elliptical wings and the long glazed cockpit for a crew of two.

What the set contains

Masking elements in 1:48 scale shaped to this type. They are peeled off the backing sheet and laid on the model, so there is no need to cut tape laboriously and join it on curves. Which surfaces the set covers is given in the manufacturer's instructions, so go through the contents before painting.

Building and painting tips

The masks belong on the model before spraying, not on a finished coat. The surface has to be dry, clean and degreased, otherwise the edge of the mask lifts and paint creeps under it.

  • Pick the elements up with tweezers and touch the adhesive side as little as possible
  • Press the edges down thoroughly, above all on transitions into a curve
  • Spray the paint in thin coats, so that no ridge forms on the edge of the mask
  • Lift the mask once the paint has dried, with a diagonal pull from a corner

Who it is for

The set suits a modeler who is building the D3A1 in 1:48 scale and wants the boundaries of the spraying straight without slow masking by hand. The masks are shaped to a particular kit, so compare beforehand which kit you have at home. This is an accessory to a model: the kit, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
