First, this all started with an email to Kevin asking what might work for a project on the bench, the Airfix RNAS Buccaneer. His response was both prompt and thorough, offering a set that will indeed fill the bill. The price was more than fair, and he tossed in an extra that I would have been happy to pay for! Slow mail from Canada to Minnesota was beyond his control, but the tracking let me know it was coming. They arrived well packaged, in fantastic condition and will make my first attempt at painting on the insignia easy. I am almost at the priming stage, so keep your fingers crossed. They are a wonderful pair to deal with and they provide a fantastic product. If you haven’t tried masking, shoot them an email and get started.
Thanks so much, Paul! We’re really glad we could help you dial in the right solution for your Buccaneer and that the experience felt supportive from start to finish. Best of luck as you head into priming — we’ll be cheering you on and can’t wait to hear how painted insignia treat you!
these arrived in good time well packed and undamaged ,looking forward to using them on a upcoming project.
Thanks so much, Pete! We're glad to hear everything arrived safely and in good time. We really appreciate the kind words about the quality—and we’re excited to be part of your upcoming project! Let us know how it goes!
This was my first attempt at painting markings instead of using decals. I wanted to try it inparticular to fit roundels over colored stripes without any bleed through, which would be hard to avoid with decals. The vinyl masks were easy to use and gave excellent results! KitMasx selection is terrific and delivery was prompt — 5 stars for sure!
Thanks for the awesome review, Andrew! We appreciate your feedback so much!
