I recently purchased this container of AK masking putty

assuming it would be an easier/better way to mask the camo pattern of a Corsair build in progress. It does work, and it works quite well as you can see from the photo .

My review is simply that it is identical in nature to Silly Putty and is more expensive. The AK product is 80 grams for about $25 and the large container of silly putty is 113 grams for around $15.

If you don't use either of these products, I would consider them for smooth curving camo patterns.

@fiveten - Absolutely Spiros! Hopefully it can save people from purchasing things they don't need.

@johnb - Absolutely... it is a fine product, just overpriced really.

@gblair - Understandable... I really need to get comfortable with my airbrush. I'm hoping to adjust my setup to make airbrushing more accessible. Right now, it's in a different room with mediocre lighting. I think I'm overly concerned with overspray getting in/on my computer.

One thing about this AK Masking product. If it is older, it gets pretty oily and I would be very hesitant to use it on a model. I tossed mine which was about two years old and never used.

Thanks for the review, Brian (@brithebuilder) I am a fan of Silly Putty for hard-line camouflage patterns, but I'll stick with the inexpensive Silly Putty from Amazon which lasts a long time as it is very reusable. AK does make a lot of great products re-using things for new purposes. I'll put this in the same category as their brass toothpicks.
