About product

Shading the tail and wing surfaces of the G3M bomber

A sheet of stencils for 1:72 scale intended for shading the tail surfaces and the ailerons of the Mitsubishi G3M naval bomber. The shapes allow for the parts of the Hasegawa kit. Spraying through the masks creates the impression that the surface follows the ribs under the covering, so large flat parts stop coming across as flat.

The Nell and long-range raids over the sea

The G3M was a twin-engine land-based bomber of the Imperial Japanese Navy, built with the emphasis on range. Thanks to it precisely, units operating from the mainland could strike targets hundreds of kilometers away over the open sea. The best known day of its career came in December 1941, when Japanese torpedo and bombing formations took part in sinking a pair of British heavy ships off the Malayan coast: for the first time in history, large warships were destroyed by aircraft while under way on the open sea. Later the G3M gave way to a more modern successor and training and transport supplemented it. The Allied designation was Nell.

Working with large surfaces

On long tail parts the most important thing is an even movement of the hand: lead a smooth pass along the whole length, not short bursts. You will tune the rest of the transition with a light translucent veil of the base shade, which reliably joins any discrepancies.

Who it is worth it for

  • builders of large twin-engine subjects
  • those interested in Japanese naval bombing units
  • modelers who want to break up a uniform surface
  • everyone who likes working with shadow transitions

FAQ

The set is aimed at the control surfaces, that is the ailerons and the tail. The fixed covering of the wing is dealt with by other techniques.

The base color darkened by a shade or two is enough. A strong difference would look unnatural on such a large aircraft.

Yes, a stencil is applied to a finished and well cured base finish. The outlines are based on the parts of the Hasegawa kit.

Yes, the name of the item gives it.
