Recently, I purchased and previewed the AZ Models 1/72 Bf-109G-12. Once I looked at the canopy for this kit I knew that I would have to get some masks for it.

Now Peewit is probably not a name with which you are familiar, but I found they are one of the few who actually do masks for this and other similar kits. Not only that, they are such that I can get them from a US retailer so don't have to get them from overseas. This is important in terms of shipping as some overseas retailers charge stupid shipping rates. One wanted $17.95 to ship three mask sets! This is why I don't order from Eduard and some others.

These are kabuki tape masks so they are fairly easy to remove from the backing and apply. Like all these types of mask, their stick is best of flat panels. Fortunately, though a lot of them and they are small, they are also all flat. The set has a good placement guide and also provides wheel hub masks.

Well worth the effort of seeking out, especially for kits like this.
