About product

Eduard TBF/TBM masks 1:48

This die-cut self-adhesive Eduard masking set in 1:48 scale is intended for a plastic model of the American Grumman TBF carrier-based torpedo bomber, or rather of its license-built TBM Avenger version. It is neither a kit nor a model in its own right, but a set of precisely shaped masks in thin yellow masking tape (kabuki). The masks will be appreciated by modelers who want crisp color transitions on the glazing, the wheels and the camouflage areas without tediously cutting tape by hand.

The real subject

The Grumman TBF Avenger is an American carrier-based torpedo and bomber aircraft of the Second World War; the version built by General Motors carried the designation TBM. It was a sturdy three-seat machine with a radial engine, a long greenhouse canopy and a dorsal gun turret. It carried a torpedo or bombs in a bomb bay and became the main strike torpedo bomber of the US Navy in the Pacific.

Use and tips

Degrease the extensive greenhouse glazing of the canopy and the gun turret carefully. Lift the masks off the backing and lay them patiently onto the individual panels of the framing, working systematically window by window. Finish off the corners and transitions with a strip of tape. Spray the paint with an airbrush in thin coats. The masks for the wheels separate the tire from the disc. Once the paint has dried, peel the masks off carefully at a shallow angle.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers of Second World War carrier-based aircraft
  • Those who want to get the extensive greenhouse canopy and the turret right
  • Builders painting with an airbrush
  • Anyone interested in cleanly separating the wheels while painting

The package contains masks only. The model, paints, glue and decals are not included, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

No. It is a set of self-adhesive masks in 1:48 scale. They serve to mask the glazing, the wheels and the camouflage areas while spraying; neither the model itself nor paints are in the package.

The masks are cut from thin yellow masking tape, which follows shapes well and can be peeled off cleanly once the paint has dried, without leaving adhesive behind.

The masks are shaped for a particular kit, because the dimensions of the glazing frames differ between makers. Check that they fit your own model before buying.
