About product

Masking set for the cabin of the Vickers Valetta C.1 1:72

Self-adhesive masks for the glazing of a model of the British twin-engine Vickers Valetta C.1 military transport in 1:72 scale. Transport aircraft typically have uneven pilot glazing with a great many short frames, and that is exactly where masking with tape by hand most often fails. The set does that work for you. It is neither a kit nor decals.

The real subject

The Vickers Valetta was the military version of the Viking airliner, adapted to the needs of the Royal Air Force. Compared with its civil predecessor it received a strengthened floor, large cargo doors on the port side and a tailwheel landing gear. The C.1 version served as a general-purpose transport for carrying cargo, passengers and paratroops and operated in the Middle and Far East among other places. The type was one of the workhorses of the British transport service of the 1950s.

Tips for masking the glazing

Never mask clear parts straight after taking them off the sprue: rinse them first and let them dry completely. Lay the mask down with tweezers and smooth the edges with a blunt tool, so that no air is left underneath. On a transport aircraft it pays to mask the cabin before the fuselage is glued together, while the part is readily accessible from all sides. Once it is sprayed, remove the masks as soon as possible and repair any overrun with varnish cleaner on a stick.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of British postwar transport machinery
  • Modelers who do not want to cut dozens of strips of tape by hand
  • Anyone interested in a clean transition between frame and glass
  • Anyone building a larger aircraft with uneven glazing

This is an accessory, not a kit. The model, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

The C.1 is the transport variant for cargo and passengers, while the T.3 was a flying navigation classroom with glazed observation domes. The masks therefore differ and are not interchangeable.

It is not, it is a masking accessory for painting. The kit has to be bought separately.

Ideally to a clean clear part before it is glued into the fuselage, or straight after it has been glued in and the transitions sanded.
