1/48 Kawasaki Ki-61-ID Hien one-sided painting mask for Tamiya
ASK masks for the Tamiya Kawasaki Ki-61-Id Hien plastic kit in 1/48 scale are one-sided. Eighteen numbered masks cover the windscreen and framed canopy from outside, with wheel masks and a mask for one clear part.
The set is an ASK original, developed specifically for the 1/48 Ki-61-Id Hien kit from Tamiya. The compact sheet ASK 200-M48037 from the SCALE MASK range (ONE-SIDED) carries masks 1–18 for the outer side of the individual panes of the windscreen and framed canopy. A vertical WHEELS section holds four circular wheel masks, and the CLEAR PARTS section a mask for one smaller transparency. For masking the inner side as well, there is the double-sided version 200-M48036.
The Ki-61 Hien ("flying swallow") served with the Imperial Japanese Army Air Service as the Army Type 3 Fighter. Allied intelligence first took it for a Messerschmitt Bf 109 and later for an Italian Macchi C.202, hence the Allied reporting name Tony. The masks fit the Tamiya kit in 1/48 scale.
