Mark I 1/144 MiG-19 Masks
By Matt Bittner
If you've read my articles you'll know I'm a huge fan of pre-made canopy masks. It's far easier to use these than the mask the canopy on your own. Of course it can be done, and done well, but pre-made masks alleviate the time it would take to mask them all on your own. Every bit of time-saving when it comes to modeling I'm a fan of.
Thankfully more and more companies are realizing this as well. No longer do you just have to rely on aftermarket companies creating the masks but now the actual modeling companies are starting to join the fray. Sure, some of them are using the aftermarket companies to actually create the product (for example Eduard) but for the actual companies to realize it's something modelers want is definitely a good thing. This time Mark I has released masks for their MiG-19 line of kits. While it's just for the canopy (some companies also include masks for the tires/wheels) it's still a huge time saver.
Huge thanks to Kits-Shop for providing these review masks.
