1:72 Ju 88C-6

Eduard Ju 88C-6 1:72 — a painting mask

A self-adhesive painting mask from Eduard in 1:72 scale. It is not a kit but a modeling accessory cut from thin yellow masking (kabuki) tape. The mask precisely follows the shape of the frames of the canopy glazing and of other surfaces, so all you have to do is stick it on the model, spray the paint and lift it off once dry. The result is sharp and clean transitions without laborious hand painting of the frames. The real subject is the German twin-engine heavy fighter Junkers Ju 88C-6. The model itself is obtained separately and is not included in the package.

The real subject

The Junkers Ju 88C-6 is a German twin-engine heavy and night fighter of the Second World War, derived from the versatile Ju 88 bomber. It had a solid nose with fixed gun armament and was used against bombers and for attacks on ground and surface targets.

Use

• Lift the individual pieces of the mask off the backing and stick them onto the glazing and other masked surfaces of the model.
• Spray the color of the frames over the mask, let it dry and peel the mask off carefully.
• Masking is done on a surface of the model that has already been base-coated and dried.
• The open areas of glazing between the masks can be filled with liquid mask.

Who it is for

• For modelers building the German twin-engine heavy fighter Junkers Ju 88C-6 in 1:72 scale.
• For anyone interested in clean canopy frames without hand painting.
• For more advanced builders who want to speed up and sharpen the masking.

An accessory for modelers. The model, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
