About product

Quick masking of a legendary bomber

The set deals with the outer surfaces of the glazing and the tires. The individual shapes are finished, and it is enough to pop them out of the sheet and press them in place; after spraying the edge stays clean and sharp. Anyone who needs to treat the inner side of the frames too should look for the rendition for both sides. The maker is the brand Art Scale Kit from Liberec.

Where the name Flak Bait came from

The nickname arose from a family play on words: the pilot named the machine after his brother's dog, which was called Flea Bait. The name proved prophetic, because the aircraft collected hits from anti-aircraft artillery throughout its service and nevertheless always came back. Among other things it took part in the attacks on the eve of the Normandy landings and at the close of the war it was already among the most experienced machines of its group. After the capitulation of Germany it was chosen for permanent preservation, the front part of the fuselage went through years of conservation and today it can be seen in a museum exhibition devoted to the air war.

How to proceed

First rid the glazing of grease, then apply the stencils and run a fingernail over the edges. Apply the base shades from lighter to darker and leave time between the coats for them to set. Remove the masks before the varnish hardens completely, or the film will tear at the edge.

Who will find outer masking enough

  • modelers for whom outer masking is enough
  • builds of closed models with no open doors
  • quick preparation before spraying a large area
  • those interested in named machines with a rich history

It is supplied without a model and without paints, as a separate masking aid.

FAQ

It arose from a family play on words based on the name of a dog. During its service it proved apt, as the aircraft really did attract hits.

If you are building a model with a closed canopy and there is no view inside, usually yes.

With pointed tweezers and a pull low over the surface, while the varnish has not fully hardened.
