About product

Glazing masks 1:72 Panavia Tornado GR.1

A masking set for the clear part of a model in 1:72 scale. The masks correspond to the shape of the individual panes of the canopy and of the windshield, so once they are stuck on only the narrow metal frames stay uncovered. Those are sprayed in the same color as the airframe and once the masks are taken off the cabin looks like a single whole. On a modern combat aircraft that is important: the frames are narrow and any flow of paint onto the glass is visible at first glance.

The real subject

The Panavia Tornado is a twin-engine combat aircraft with a variable-geometry wing, developed in European cooperation. The crew consists of a pilot and a systems operator sitting one behind the other in a tandem cabin. The designation GR.1 is carried by the British form intended for attacks on ground targets and for reconnaissance. The canopy is long and divided by only a few massive panes, which against biplane cabins is an entirely different task - fewer parts, but larger areas, on which every bubble under a mask shows.

How to work with the mask

Wash the clear part, degrease it and let it dry. Transfer the mask with tweezers, lay it in the middle of the pane and push the air out toward the edges - with large areas that is the most important step. First spray a thin coat of the color of the frame as seen from the interior, then the base and finally the camouflage. A thick coat at the edge of a mask creates a step that stays visible once it is taken off. Take the mask off once the paint has gone tacky, with a pull at an angle to the side.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of modern jet aircraft with narrow canopy frames
  • Modelers who spray multicolored camouflage and want to unify the cabin with the airframe
  • Those who do not manage to trace accurately with tape on large panes
  • Modelers in 1:72, where a frame is only a fraction of a millimeter wide

FAQ

With the narrow frames of a modern canopy tape is hard to trim and while trimming on the part there is a risk of a groove in the clear plastic. A pre-cut mask holds the shape exactly.

First the color of the frame as seen from the interior, then the base and finally the camouflage. Apply every coat thinly, so that no step arises at the edge of the mask.

The masks are cut according to the clear part of a particular kit. On a model from another manufacturer they may fit only partly.

No, these are masks for the outer side. Separate double-sided sets are intended for both sides.
