1:144 OV-1A/JOV-1A Mohawk Photo-etched parts and self-adhesive painting mask

OV-1A/JOV-1A Mohawk, photo-etched parts and painting masks 1:144 (Clear Prop Models)

A combined accessory set in 1:144 scale for a model of the Grumman OV-1A/JOV-1A Mohawk reconnaissance aircraft. The package brings together fine photo-etched metal parts for refining the detail and self-adhesive painting masks on yellow kabuki paper for clean masking of the glazing. It is not a kit or a stand-alone model but an upgrade set that lifts the detail and the precision of a build. The masks are shaped to the particular form of the model's cabin.

Use

• Separate the photo-etched parts carefully from the fret and bond them with cyanoacrylate (super glue).
• Transfer the masks onto clean, degreased glazing and press them down firmly along the edges of the frames.
• Spray the paint in thin coats so that it does not creep under the edge of the mask.
• Once the paint has dried, peel the mask off carefully; it reveals clean panes with no bleed.

Who the set is for

The set is intended for more advanced modelers who want sharp glazing edges and a higher level of detail in the small 1:144 scale. Working with fine photo-etch and small masks calls for patience and a steady hand.

This is an accessory set (photo-etch and masks), not a kit. The model, paints and glue are not included.
