Eduard 1/72 Spitfire Mk.IIa Masks
By Jacob Russell
This mask set is for Revell's recent 1/72nd scale Supermarine Spitfire Mk.IIa kit. It is made from Eduard's customary rice paper tape, and it consists of 13 elements. Besides the usual masks for the windscreen, sliding and fixed canopy sections, you also get masks for the main wheels, both the 4 and 5 spoke types.
Revell of Germany's new Spitfire Mk.IIa was a welcome surprise. It gives a good account of itself. It is accurate, well detailed, and competitively priced. The first aftermarket item I purchase after I get a new kit is a canopy masking set, to simplify what is otherwise a thankless task. You get to grips faster with masks sets like this and so I recommend these masks from Eduard, whom I would like to thank for the review sample.
