Eduard CX068 Ki-67 Peggy HASEGAWA 1/72 – painting masks for scale models

Eduard CX068 Ki-67 Peggy HASEGAWA 1/72 is a professional set of masks designed for precise painting of the Mitsubishi Ki-67 “Peggy” aircraft model in 1:72 scale, produced by Hasegawa. The masks are laser-cut from high-quality kabuki foil, allowing extremely accurate reproduction of cockpit windows, turret covers, and other demanding transparent elements, so characteristic of this Japanese World War II bomber.

The Mitsubishi Ki-67 “Peggy” was a Japanese heavy bomber and torpedo aircraft that entered production in 1943. It served mainly in the second half of World War II in the Imperial Japanese Army Air Service. The aircraft was used, among others, during air raids on American fortresses in the Pacific, as well as in the defense of Okinawa island. The Ki-67 featured a modern design, solid armor, and the ability to mount a wide range of armaments – making it one of the best Japanese bombers of its time.

The Eduard CX068 set is designed for 1:72 scale models and precisely matched to the Hasegawa model. The masks make work much easier for modellers who care about clean and sharp panel lines on windows and other transparent parts, eliminating laborious and imprecise manual cutting of masking tape. The kabuki film allows for easy application and removal without risk of damaging the surface of the model or leaving adhesive residue.
