Omask 54061 Fairey Gannet AS.1/AS.4 mask (for Airfix) 1/48 – painting masks for 1/48 scale model

Omask 54061 Fairey Gannet AS.1/AS.4 mask is a high-quality set of painting masks designed for the 1/48 scale plastic model of the Fairey Gannet AS.1/AS.4 aircraft, produced by Airfix. The dedicated masks enable precise reproduction of realistically painted details of this British legend of naval aviation. The Fairey Gannet was a multi-role aircraft serving primarily with the Royal Navy in the 1950s and 60s, used as an anti-submarine warfare (ASW) aircraft and in a reconnaissance role aboard aircraft carriers. The most important operations of the aircraft took place during the Cold War period – it was used in numerous exercises and patrol operations in Europe and the North Sea region.

The presented mask set has been carefully designed for modelers who expect a perfect final result and comfortable handling. The masks are made of very thin, flexible, yet durable self-adhesive material that adheres perfectly to the model's surface and allows for extremely sharp lines and ideal color separations. The set makes it easy to mask the most demanding areas, such as cockpit glazing, wheel rims, or complex panel lines, eliminating the risk of paint bleeding or accidental smudging.
