Installing clear canopy parts such as windscreens and windows is one of the most demanding stages of building an aircraft model—especially if you aim for perfect reproduction of window framing, lines, and glass surfaces when using airbrush techniques. Eduard EX1051 enables precise masking of both the canopy frames and window surfaces. This allows every modeler to achieve sharp, clean edges while avoiding paint seepage and the tedious process of masking with tape. The set also includes masks for the wheels, further enhancing the realism of the main landing gear.

Eduard masks are dedicated, meaning they are designed with the original model documentation in mind. They make it possible to quickly and effectively mask the most sensitive elements, saving time and eliminating the risk of accidental damage to clear parts. As a result, modelers can focus on painting and weathering without worrying about unsightly paint edges or imprecise frame lines.

We recommend the Eduard EX1051 set to both intermediate and advanced plastic modelers seeking perfection in details. It is an essential product for modelers who want to easily achieve a professional finish, whether creating battle dioramas or collector's replicas. Difficulty level: 2/5 – high precision and ease of application.
