Eduard EX1004 Ki-21-I ICM 1/48 – Painting Mask

The Eduard EX1004 painting mask is an invaluable accessory specifically designed for the ICM Ki-21-I model in the popular 1/48 scale. It is a ready-to-use set of precisely cut foil stickers, dedicated to the most demanding elements of the model, such as the canopy glazing or wheels. The product comes from the renowned Czech manufacturer Eduard, recognized in the modeling market for accessories of the highest quality, ensuring a professional final effect.

Ki-21-I (Type 97 Heavy Bomber) is a historic Japanese bomber used during World War II by the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force. This four-person aircraft, known to the Allies by the codename “Sally,” was widely used, among others, in the Far East, the Sino-Japanese campaign, and later in conflicts in the Pacific from 1938 to 1945.

Eduard EX1004 masks are made of a flexible foil specially designed for scale modeling—this material adheres precisely to the plastic surfaces of the model, leaving no residue when removed, which protects delicate details from damage or staining. The set includes a complete set of masks for all transparent sections as well as for the appropriate landing gear parts, which greatly speeds up the painting process and reduces the risk of inaccuracies or paint bleeding.
