1:48 Junkers Ju87B-1 Stuka kabuki masks (closed aircraft canopy)

New Ware Junkers Ju 87B-1 Stuka kabuki masks 1:48

A set of accurately cut self-adhesive masks from New Ware in 1:48 scale, in the version for the closed canopy. The kabuki masks of fine washi (rice paper) tape follow the shape of the part well, come off easily and leave no adhesive. The set covers the framing of the intricate canopy glazing and further clear parts. The closed-canopy variant is intended for a build with the cockpit shut. It is an accessory for painting, not an aircraft model.

The real subject

The Junkers Ju 87 Stuka is a German dive bomber of the Second World War, unmistakable for its inverted gull wing and its fixed landing gear in aerodynamic fairings. The B-1 version was among the early production standards and became famous for attacks out of a steep dive accompanied by the distinctive wail of its sirens.

Use

• Lift the mask off the sheet, set it exactly and press it down on the part
• Spray the paint in thin coats against bleeding under the edge
• Remove the masks shortly after the paint has dried
• The closed-canopy version makes masking the intricate glass easier

Who the set is for

• For builders of Second World War aircraft in 1:48 scale
• For modelers who want sharp transitions without masking by hand
• For a build with a closed canopy painted with an airbrush
• For enthusiasts of German aviation hardware

This is a set of painting masks, not a model. The paints, the glue and the model are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
