About product

Peewit 1:72, masks for the canopy of the Hawker Hurricane Mk.I

Die-cut self-adhesive masks from the Czech manufacturer Peewit intended for a model of the Hawker Hurricane Mk.I fighter in 1:72 scale. It is not a kit and not a replacement part but an accessory for the build: the precisely shaped pieces cover the glass of the canopy during spraying, so the framing of the cockpit comes out sharp, even and with no paint bleeding under the edge.

Material and principle

The masks are cut from thin low-tack kabuki-type masking tape. The tape adapts well to the curve of the canopy, holds even on small areas and as a rule leaves no glue residue once taken off. The individual shapes are lifted off the backing paper with the tip of a scalpel or with tweezers and stuck onto a clean, degreased and dry part.

Why masking pays off on this type

The Hurricane has a heavily framed, multi-part canopy with a prominent armored windscreen. Drawing such framing out by hand with a brush in 1:72 scale is lengthy and seldom comes out straight. With a mask it is enough to spray the canopy in the same color as the fuselage, so the frames match the surrounding camouflage exactly in shade.

Usage tips

Press the mask down with a wooden toothpick all round, and if need be seal the edges with a thin coat of clear varnish, so that the paint does not seep in. Spray in several light coats, first the interior shade, then the external camouflage. Remove the mask as soon as the paint has set, pulling at an angle rather than straight up from the surface.

Who the set is for

  • modelers who want sharp canopy framing without drawing it out by hand
  • builders of Second World War aircraft in 1:72 scale
  • beginners who are learning to work with an airbrush
  • anyone who builds several models and saves time on finishing work

The package contains only masks. The kit, paints and glue are not part of the delivery.

FAQ

It is not. It is purely a set of masking pieces for spraying glazed areas. The kit, the paints and the glue all have to be obtained separately.

The tape is low-tack, so a mask once taken off can sometimes be used a second time on the larger shapes. Count on it being a single-use accessory, though, as repeated use is not guaranteed.

The masks are cut to the shape of the canopy of a particular kit. On another model of the same type the shapes may differ slightly, so always lay them dry in place and check before sticking them down.

Press the mask down properly all round and spray the edge with a thin coat of clear varnish or of the interior color. That seals any gap and the camouflage paint then has no way to run under it.
