About product

The Weathering Aircraft 17 - decals and masks, in English

A themed issue of the modeling magazine The Weathering Aircraft, published by the Spanish brand AMMO of Mig Jimenez. This is a printed publication, not a model and not a kit - you are not buying plastic parts but instructions and photographic procedures. The whole seventeenth issue turns around a single theme: decals and masks, that is, the two ways of getting markings and color transitions onto a model. The text is in English.

What you will find in the issue

  • Work with decals: preparing a gloss base, softeners, settling the film onto uneven surfaces.
  • Masking as an alternative to decals - when it makes sense to spray markings instead of applying them.
  • Photographic procedures step by step on specific aircraft models.
  • How decals and masks tie in with the further phases of the work: varnish, weathering, the final matting.

Why the theme matters

Decals and masks are the place where the credibility of the finished model is decided. A badly settled decal with a visible glossy frame, the so-called silvering, spoils even a carefully painted model, and conversely a well unmasked marking can move a model to another level. The choice between a decal and a mask is not obvious either: large areas of marking or pronounced camouflage transitions are often better handled by spraying through a mask, while small technical lettering remains the domain of decals. It is precisely these decision situations that the magazine takes apart on specific examples.

Who the publication is for

For aircraft modelers who already know the basics of building and painting and want to move the final phase of the work forward. It is useful also for those who still struggle with imperfectly settled decals or with paint seeping under a mask. A passive knowledge of English is assumed - most of the content is, however, led photographically, so you will find your way through the procedures even with a limited vocabulary.

This is a printed magazine. The model, the paints and the decals are not part of it.

FAQ

It is a printed magazine. It contains no plastic parts, no decals and no paints.

In English. The procedures are, however, accompanied by a great number of photographs, so they can be followed even with a limited knowledge of the language.

You do not. Every issue of the series stands on its own and is devoted to one theme.

This series is focused on aircraft modeling, but the procedures of working with decals and masks can be transferred to other equipment as well.
