1:72 Mask F/A-18E Super Hornet BASIC (HAS E19)

New Ware F/A-18E Super Hornet BASIC mask set (1:72)

This is not a kit but a set of self-adhesive masking templates from the manufacturer New Ware for plastic models of the single-seat F/A-18E Super Hornet carrier-borne multirole fighter in 1:72 scale. The masks are machine die-cut to close tolerances from kabuki paper, which follows the curved canopy well and comes off after spraying with no adhesive residue. The BASIC level covers the outer masking of the cockpit glazing and the other clear parts, and the landing gear wheels.

The real subject

The Boeing F/A-18E Super Hornet is a single-seat carrier-borne multirole fighter of the US Navy, an enlarged and modernized development of the F/A-18 type. The large single-piece canopy is quick and clean to paint with accurate masks.

Use

• Peel the mask off the sheet and transfer it to the clear part with tweezers.
• The templates line up with the shape of the canopy on the given model.
• The wheel masks separate the tire from the hub while painting.
• Kabuki paper follows the curvature and comes off cleanly once dry.

Who the set is for

• Builders of contemporary carrier aircraft.
• Modelers who do not want to cut masks by hand.
• Anyone interested in clean color transitions on a model.

This is an accessory for painting a model, not a kit. Paints, glue and the model are not included in the package.
