1:72 He 111H-6

Eduard 1:72 He 111H-6 masking set

A set of die-cut self-adhesive masks made of masking tape for models of the Heinkel He 111H-6 medium bomber in 1:72 scale. The masks follow the intricate framing of the extensive nose and cockpit glazing exactly, which on this type speeds the work up considerably and gives sharp paint transitions. Circular masks for the wheel hubs are usually included as well.

The real subject

The Heinkel He 111 was a German twin-engine medium bomber with its characteristic fully glazed nose. The H-6 version was among the most widespread and was powered by Junkers Jumo 211 engines. The type was used as a bomber and as a torpedo carrier and became one of the symbols of the German bomber force.

Use

• Apply the masks to degreased glazing, starting with the larger parts.
• Press the edges down carefully so that paint cannot bleed under the tape.
• Spray the frames in the airframe color and take the masks off carefully once it is dry.
• The circular masks come in useful when spraying the tires and the wheels.

Who the set is for

• Builders of German He 111 bombers in 1:72.
• Modelers who would rather not cut out extensive, intricate glazing by hand.

This is an accessory for a plastic kit, not a model. The kit, paints and glue are not included in the package.
