1:32 OV-10D

Eduard OV-10D Bronco 1:32 — painting masks

A set of precisely die-cut painting masks from the Czech manufacturer Eduard in 1:32 scale for the American North American Rockwell OV-10D Bronco multi-purpose aircraft. The masks, made of a fine masking material (kabuki paper), follow exactly the shape of the frames of the extensively glazed cockpit with its good all-round view. They are stuck onto the model, oversprayed with paint and taken off once dry. This is an accessory for a plastic model, not a stand-alone model — the kit has to be bought separately.

The real subject

The North American Rockwell OV-10 Bronco was an American twin-engine turboprop aircraft intended for observation, forward air control and counter-insurgency work. It had a twin-boom tail, a glazed cockpit with an excellent view and the ability to operate from short strips. The OV-10D version was adapted for night observation and reconnaissance and carried the matching sensor equipment. The Bronco served mainly with the US Army and the US Marine Corps.

Use

• Masking the frames of the extensively glazed cockpit before spraying
• The masks are stuck on, oversprayed with paint and taken off once dry
• Time saved on intricate glazing with an all-round view
• Sharp and even edges of the frames

Who the masks are for

• Modelers building the OV-10D Bronco in 1:32 scale
• Anyone interested in clean masking of the extensively glazed cockpit
• Beginners and experienced modelers alike who want to speed up painting the canopy

This is a set of painting masks, not a model of the aircraft. The kit itself, the paints and the glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
