About product

The A400M in 1:72 scale - a New Ware masking set, the BASIC range

The set contains pre-cut masks of kabuki tape for a model of the European Airbus A400M military transport aircraft, which was formerly presented under the name Grizzly as well. The designation BASIC expresses the range of the set: the basic level concentrates on the main glazing and the wheels. On a large transport machine that is exactly what holds a builder up most.

The real subject

The A400M is a four-engine turboprop transport aircraft developed for the needs of the European air forces. The cockpit has extensive glazing with many frames and the landing gear is intricate, so a model offers plenty of areas that have to be masked off before painting. Masking such a cockpit by hand is a long evening's work and the result tends to vary.

How to use the mask

Degrease the glazing and let it dry. Peel the parts off with tweezers, lay them on and press them down with a toothpick around the perimeter; on long straight runs work from one end, so that the tape does not ripple. Cover the free areas inside with a strip of tape or with masking fluid. Spray the paint in thin coats, so that the frames do not visually thicken. Remove the masks shortly after drying, with a pull at a shallow angle. On a model this large the rest of the sheet comes in useful for the wheels, the covers and transitions between shades.

Who the set is for

  • builders of large transport aircraft in 1:72 scale
  • modelers who want to avoid masking a many-paned cockpit
  • those interested in modern European military aircraft
  • those who want crisp frames with no retouching with a brush afterward

The set serves for masking while painting. It does not contain a model, paints or glue.

FAQ

It is a statement of the range of the set. The basic level deals with the main glazing and the wheels, while wider variants from the same manufacturer add further areas.

The cockpit has extensive glazing with many frames and the landing gear is intricate. Masking such an area by hand takes hours and the edges tend to be uneven.

Lay them on by one end first, line them up against the frame and only then press them down gradually further. Drawing the tape taut along its whole length leads to rippling.

It is not. This is a masking set only; a kit in 1:72 scale has to be obtained separately.
