About product

Eduard masking set for the C-130J Hercules in 1:72 scale

The set contains pre-cut self-adhesive masking stencils from the Czech maker Eduard for a model of the C-130J Hercules transport aircraft in 1:72 scale. It is not a model, nor a part to be glued on. The stencils are stuck onto a built but still unpainted model, sprayed over and taken off once the paint has dried, so that the frames of the glazing and the color transitions come out sharp.

Why it helps on the Hercules

The Hercules has a large cockpit with bulged front glazing and side windows of irregular shapes. Cutting a mask for these areas by hand is slow even in the larger scales, and in 1:72 the knife easily slips on the curved glass as well. Pre-cut stencils solve that: you only peel each part off, lay it down and press the edges in place.

The real subject

The C-130 Hercules is a four-engine turboprop transport aircraft with a high-mounted wing and a rear cargo ramp. The J version is the modern form with new avionics and six-blade propellers. The aircraft is used to carry cargo and people and serves in many countries.

How to work with the masks

  • Degrease the glazing and let it dry completely, otherwise the tape will not hold.
  • Pick the parts up with tweezers so that the adhesive side does not get greasy.
  • Press the edges down with a toothpick so that no paint seeps underneath.
  • Paint in thin coats and take the mask off while the paint is touch dry.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers who build the C-130J Hercules in 1:72 scale.
  • Anyone who wants a clean cockpit without cutting tape by hand.
  • Modelers who paint with an airbrush and need sharp edges.

The set does not contain a kit, paints or glue. Before buying, check that the masks match the kit you are building.

FAQ

It is not. It is a masking set for painting a C-130J model in 1:72 scale that has already been built.

The stencils are cut to the shape of the glazing of a particular kit. Check the compatibility against the details on the box.

Take them off while the paint is only touch dry and pull them at an angle back over themselves, not straight up.

The exact number of parts is not stated here. You will find it on the box of the set.
