This new set of painting masks from Black Magic includes painting masks for the Reich Bands on the big 1/32 Fw-190's.  Black Magic has a variety of painting masks for canopies and wheels and other items.  If you have ever spent the time to do exacting masking, you know the time such a job can consume.  A masking set will permit you to quickly and accurately mask the model or model part in a very quick and accurate way.  Such masking sets will permit you to finish the model quicker and move onto the next model on your workbench. 

These are very thin black vinyl masks for the Reich Bands.  The plan here is to paint your Reich band colour first, then apply the masks to the correct location and paint the rest of the model.  Once finished you remove the masking material and you're done.

A very nice masking set and sure to save you some time and effort when building this big Luftwaffe fighter. 

I would like to thank Cutting Edge Modelworks for providing me with this review sample.
