Eduard CX110 P-47D-20 ACADEMY 1/72 – painting masks for plastic model kit

Eduard CX110 are precisely cut masks dedicated to the P-47D-20 Thunderbolt fighter model in 1/72 scale, manufactured by Academy. This set of masks is an essential accessory for every modeler striving for perfect painting results when building miniatures of classic WWII aircraft.

The P-47D Thunderbolt was one of the most important fighters used by the United States Army Air Forces between 1943–1945. It was famous for its remarkable durability, firepower, and exceptional ability to escort bombers and carry out effective ground-attack missions. Units equipped with Thunderbolts fought actively both on the Western Front and in the Pacific, being present, for example, during the D-Day operation and in intense battles over Germany.

The Eduard CX110 set includes very precisely cut masks made of high-quality film, intended for protecting clear cockpit parts (canopy), wheels, and other details requiring precise painting. The masks are manufactured from flexible foil, which perfectly conforms to surfaces and makes the work easier—especially on small parts of the 1/72 scale model. Such a solution allows for quick and safe paint application to the canopy without risking damage to clear parts and eliminates the need for labor-intensive manual masking.
