Lothar Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 (edited) I need help with custom made paints masks. I have a started 1/32 Hasegawa Ki-84 Prototype which I've converted to a regular version - the parts are in the kit so that was no big deal. However, I do only have the kit markings for the prototype and I would like to finish her in these markings: I've enlarged the decal sheet from this 48scale kit by 150% to get a templat to cut my own masks. But, I miserably failed with the tail number "69" - I don't have a cutter, I work carpenter style from Tamiya tape and very sharp blade, so understandably I cannot handle curves. Any idea where to find someone to do the "69" mask (see No. 9): Any hint or help would be highly appreciated.

BloorwestSiR Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I had DN Models make some custom masks for me. Drop them a line and see if they can help you out. Carl Lothar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1to1scale Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Have you checked with Montex? I used their masks for painting mine, see link in my signature. Check Maketar also, they made some custom masks for my cougar a year ago. However, you may have to provide them with a broken down drawing, most companies will not re-create other companies artwork.

Fanes Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Lothar - shoot me a PM - maybe my Silhouette plotter together with some Oramask can come to help Joachim Lothar and Out2gtcha 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozart Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 If Joachim can't help, I can Lothar......and I'm in your debt!! The only slight problem is that I'm away for the whole of September "down under", so if you're in a hurry it would have to be in the next week and a bit.

Out2gtcha Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Yes, my friend, I'm also in your debt, so if none of the above work out, give me a shout. Im sure Im set up just like, or very similarly to Joachim and Max. Lothar and mozart 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lothar Posted August 20, 2019 Author Share Posted August 20, 2019 Thank you very much Brian, it's indeed a great and helpful bunch of people here on LSP. I'll get back to you if needed. Lothar Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themongoose Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Lothar if you don’t have luck with precut masks consider trying a “french curve” for cutting it out by hand. It’s like doing one of those connect the dots pictures from when we were kids :-) Lothar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
