Eduard Models continues to expand its MiG-21 line, this time with an excellent addition that would save modelers time and grief: self-adhesive pre-cut masks.

The mask set includes pre-cut masks for the canopy, the landing lights, and some details like the rudder and wing wooden panels (for radar and ECM). The mask for the canopy provides you only with the edges of the canopy, you are then expected to “fill-in the blanks”, but that is very simple and straightforward to do.

It took me about 5 minutes to mask the canopy, the landing lights, and those fuselage details. Otherwise, it would have taken, probably, over half an hour and likely would have not been such a clean masking work.

Recommended to modelers of all levels.

I would like to thank Eduard and IPMS/USA for the review sample.
