About product

Eduard masking set for the A6M2 Zero Type 21 model in 1:48 scale

Despite the bare name, this is not a kit nor an etched set, but a set of masking templates. The masks are cut for the parts of Eduard's kit of the Mitsubishi A6M2 Zero Type 21 carrier fighter in the Weekend version, which is also the only thing that sets this item apart from the etched set of the same name. Eduard is a Czech maker from Obrnice near Most, and the masks belong to its standard range of accessories.

The real subject

The A6M2 Type 21 is an early carrier version of the Japanese Zero fighter with folding wingtips, which let it fit into a ship's elevators. The cockpit has a long, divided canopy with pronounced framing, so masking is more work than on models with a simple bubble. A model in 1:48 scale is the usual compromise between size and amount of detail.

How to work with the masks

Degrease the clear part and let it dry. Lift the masks off the backing with tweezers and lay them on dry, then press them down with a soft tool so that the edges seat. Spray the interior shade first and only then the outside color, so that the frame does not show through from within. Take them off shortly after the paint has set, while the edge is not yet brittle.

Who the set is for

  • builders of aircraft models in 1:48 scale
  • modelers who are held up by cutting masks out of tape by hand
  • anyone after crisp edges on a densely framed cockpit
  • those who want to finish a model faster and without repainting

The package holds masks only. The kit, paints and glue are not part of it.

FAQ

It is not. This item is a masking set. An etched set is sold under the same name, but it is a different product.

It refers to the version of the kit the masks are cut for. It does not define the scope of the masking set itself.

Besides the model and paints, only tweezers and a soft tool for pressing the edges down. The package calls for nothing more.

Ideally as soon as the paint has set. Lifting the edge off a fully cured coat is harder and a piece of the finish may come away.
