Model history: The Supermarine Spitfire Mk VIII, for which these masks are intended, was a British fighter used during World War II, especially intensively in the campaigns of southern Europe and the Far East from 1943 to 1945. It was a development of the famous Spitfire design, adapted for combat in harsher climatic conditions and new RAF combat tactics.

The Montex MM24023 set allows for the creation of realistic painted markings – including RAF roundels and individual numbers or letters – with the highest precision, far exceeding the results of standard decals. It is especially recommended for intermediate and advanced modelers who care about historical accuracy and detail in large scale aircraft models.

• Difficulty level: 2/5 (using the masks and stencils does not pose a challenge even for moderately experienced modelers; detailed pictorial instructions included)

This product is recommended for all aircraft modelers who focus on the aesthetics of their model finishes, especially WWII constructions and fans of large scales. With Montex MM24023, every Spitfire VIII replica gains realism, while painting becomes pure pleasure!
