Furball Aero-Design FMS-001: TF-9J Cougar

An accessory that has grown in popularity over the years has been vinyl masks. Designed for model clear bits, there are even masks for camouflage schemes and other areas where masking is important. This particular set is designed for the Kitty Hawk 1/48 TF-9J Cougar. It consists of masks for the windscreen, main canopy and the blast shield. In addition, there are wheel hub masks, something that comes in very handy on kits where the transition between hub and tire is not very distinct.

The main canopy mask sections cover the outline of the canopy and you can then use either liquid mask or tape to take care of the rest. I've used this type of mask and it works quite well. Apologies for not showing the mask itself, but all you would see is a black rectangle. The package cover shows what masks are there.

Overall it is a very handy item and if you have never used a mask set, I think you will be pleased.
