About product

A masking set for the carrier-based S-3A Viking in 1:72 scale

This item is a sheet of pre-cut masking templates from the SX-Art brand, not the aircraft itself. The shapes follow the glazing of the cockpit and the frames around it, so laborious cutting of strips along a ruler falls away and the edges come out sharp along their whole length.

The real subject

The Lockheed S-3 Viking was a carrier-based anti-submarine aircraft of the US Navy. It entered service in the middle of the 1970s, carried a crew of four and was powered by a pair of turbofan engines in nacelles under the wing. For its characteristic sound the crews called it the Hoover. The S-3A guise was the original production version; the machines flew from the decks of aircraft carriers long after the end of the Cold War, in their later years in tanker and reconnaissance duties as well.

How to work with the masks

The templates are lifted off the sheet with the tip of a scalpel or with tweezers and offered up to a degreased surface. Work the pressure from the middle out to the edges, so that no air is left under the film. Apply the paint in thin layers, because a heavy layer tends to creep under the edge. Take them off at an angle to the surface while the paint is not yet fully cured.

Who the set suits

  • builders of carrier-based equipment in 1:72 scale
  • anyone who wants clean glazing frames without cutting by hand
  • modelers put off by masking an extensive cockpit
  • anyone interested in the American naval aviation of the Cold War

The package holds masking templates only. Paints and the aircraft do not belong to it.

FAQ

It is not. This is a sheet of masking templates intended for a build; the aircraft itself is sold separately.

They cover the cockpit glazing and the frames around it, so that the transparent area stays clean after spraying and the frames have a sharp edge.

Count on sticking it on once. Once lifted, the tack falls and thin shapes deform.

1:72 scale, as the name gives.
