Montex SM48058 is a high-quality set of painting masks designed for the plastic model of the Nakajima Ki-43-II Hayabusa (Oscar) aircraft in 1:48 scale, dedicated to the HASEGAWA kit. The product is intended for modelers who expect maximum precision and comfort while creating intricate camouflage and painting cockpit details and markings.

Nakajima Ki-43-II Oscar is a legendary Japanese light fighter from World War II, intensively used by the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force in battles over the Pacific, China, and Burma from 1942 to 1945. Thanks to its sleek silhouette and above-average maneuverability, this aircraft was utilized, among others, during the Burma campaigns and in the defense of the Japanese home islands against Allied air raids.

Montex masks are made from professional, flexible self-adhesive foil that adheres perfectly to the model's surface – both flat and curved. The set allows for precise masking of cockpit glazing, wheels, and other selected parts requiring careful painting. Using the masks minimizes the risk of paint seepage, making it much easier to achieve a realistic effect and speeding up the model-building process. The product does not include the plastic model – it is an accessory that enhances and upgrades the finishing level of the Hasegawa 1:48 Ki-43-II kits.
