Hi there, and

Hi there, welcome aboard.

Hi there, and

Hi there, and

Just as a final wrap-up to this thread, the model "went home" yesterday, and now resides in the Fowlmere Airfields Museum. Many thanks to Mark and the team for giving my efforts some display room. https://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.php?/topic/90601-p-51d-5na-339th-fg-finished/&do=findComment&comment=1420654

Hi Benoit, welcome aboard.

I'm old and retired too, however my brain tells me I'm still 25. My body, on the other hand, says "You wish!!" Welcome aboard.

It is that. Mine does everything I needed it to.

Howdy, welcome aboard. As Max says, you need a machine, although before I got mine I tried a couple of commercial masks, plus one done for me by a pal in my IPMS branch, to make sure I was comfortable with the process.

Hello Plinio. Welcome, enjoy the freedom of not being tied to available decals.

I can't really add anything to what Kev and Max have said, except to say that some ICM kits have templates for canopy masks in the instructions. Thus it's a pretty simple job to scan and import into studio. And welcome aboard.

Hi, and welcome. I spent 9 years at the other end of Hampshire to you, in Gosport.

Hi and I look forward to seeing your P-39, I have a soft spot for that strange bird.

Hello Guy, good to see another LSP-er here.

Thanks Max, downloaded. You never know, I may do an early example.

Thanks Max, downloaded. Are you contemplating adding an early windscreen at some stage? Curiosity only, I've not identified a subject for mine yet, and it's unlikely to have a sloping screen.

Hi, and welcome aboard.

Hi Vitor, welcome aboard

Hi Guy, good to see you here. Quite a few folks here from LSP you'll recognise.

View File TM-Windscreen-324872.studio3 I've been working on a pair of ICM Tiger Moths, and in common with many ICM kits, there is a mask template in the instructions which was easily used to produce these masks. I thought that as we have recent kits of this from Airfix in both 1/48 and 1/72, I'd include these by downscaling the 1/32 masks as detailed in a note on the file. There is also a separate set of drawings off the cutting area: these are there as an indicator of which mask is which, they correspond to the ICM instructions, thus they are not guaranteed to be the same size as the final masks on the cutting area. I am in the process of masking up the ICM windscreens, and the fit is OK so far. I have not yet tried the smaller masks on a kit. I have a pair of 48th examples in the stash, and will update the file if necessary when I've built them. If you try the smaller-scale masks, please PM me with any feedback, particularly if the sizes are significantly incorrect. Thank you. Submitter MikeC Submitted 10/23/2022 Category Canopy Masks  

Hi Brian, good to see other modelling genres represented.

Welcome aboard from someone who used to live just down the coast in Hampshire. As for supplies, I find Graphtec Craft Store give excellent service: I bought my Silhouette 3 from them, and have put in another order for a lo-tack cutting mat and other stuff since.
