1:48 Fw 190 A/F mask (for Eduard)

Focke-Wulf Fw 190 A/F mask 1:48 (Omask)

A set of precisely cut masking pieces made of kabuki tape for covering the canopy glazing during spraying and painting. The masks follow the frames of the canopy exactly and allow a clean separation between the color of the frames and the glazing. The set is worked out for models of the Focke-Wulf Fw 190 in the A and F versions in 1:48 scale. It is not a kit and not a part of the model: it is an accessory for clean painting. The masks are cut for the Fw 190 kit from Eduard.

The real subject

The Focke-Wulf Fw 190 was one of the most successful German fighters of the Second World War. The A series served as day fighters, while the F variants were built as ground-attack aircraft for direct support of ground troops. Its sturdy radial engine and excellent flying qualities made it a very popular modeling subject.

Use

• Transfer the pieces from the sheet and lay them precisely onto the frames of the glazing.
• Spray the paint in thin coats, preferably with an airbrush.
• Once dry, peel the mask off carefully; it leaves no adhesive residue.
• Press the edges down gently before spraying to get a sharp transition.

Who it is for

• Modelers building this model in the A or F versions in 1:48 scale.
• Anyone who wants sharp canopy frames without going over them by hand.

This is a masking accessory, not a model. The paints, the glue and the model itself are not included in the package.
