About product

New Ware 1:72 Mask Tu-22M2 Backfire B BASIC

A set of machine-cut self-adhesive masks for building the model of the long-range bomber Tu-22M2 in 1:72 scale. The masks are cut to the shape of the parts of a particular kit, which is stated in the product name, and they need not fit a model of another origin. The BASIC designation describes the extent of the set: it is the basic version aimed at the main glazed areas. The extended steps that New Ware offers for some of its sets hold further masking elements on top of this basis. Choose the step, then, according to how much of the masking you want prepared in advance.

Why a mask and not tape by hand

The cockpit glazing of the Tu-22M2 is broken up and the frames are very thin in 1:72 scale. Tape cut by hand waves at the edge, paint runs under it, and the time spent cutting bears no comparison with a pre-cut mask. A mask holds the exact shape of the frame, can be pressed down onto the glass and comes off in one piece after spraying.

The real subject

The Tu-22M is a twin-engine supersonic bomber with a variable-geometry wing and a crew of several. The M2 version belongs to the early production of the type and differs from the later machines in the layout of the forward part of the fuselage. It is exactly the long, broken-up cockpit canopy that makes the most work when building the model.

How to use the mask

  • Degrease the glazing before masking and let it dry thoroughly.
  • Take the mask off the sheet with pointed tweezers or a toothpick and do not touch the adhesive side with your fingers.
  • Press the edges down with a wooden stick, so that no paint runs underneath them.
  • Lay the paint on in thin coats, as a heavy coat forms a step at the edge.
  • Take the masks off shortly after the paint has dried, pulling at an angle along the edge.
  • Store the rest of the sheet in its original bag away from light and heat.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers who are building the very kit the set is cut for.
  • Those who want crisp cockpit frames without hours of work with tape.
  • Beginners for whom masking glazing is the first big obstacle.

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

FAQ

It is the step of extent of the set. BASIC is the basic version aimed at the main glazed areas, while the extended ADVANCED and EXPERT steps hold further masking elements for a number of sets.

No. The masks are cut to the shape of the parts of the kit stated in the product name. They need not fit another molding of the same airplane.

It is not. It is an accessory, that is a set of masks for masking the glazing. The kit itself, paints and glue have to be bought separately.

Take them off shortly after the paint has dried, pulling at an angle along the edge rather than straight up. Once the finish has cured completely the edge comes away less easily.
