The Blackburn Buccaneer is one of the most well-known British jet bombers, used by the Royal Navy and RAF from the 1960s until the mid-1990s. It served, among others, in the Falklands conflict and during Operation Desert Storm. Its distinctive profile and complex canopy glazing require the modeler to use precise masks to achieve a perfect model finish.

Montex masks significantly reduce painting preparation time, eliminating the risk of damaging clear surfaces. Difficulty rating: 1/5 – very easy to apply.
