About product

German infantry in resting poses 1:35 - CMK resin figures

A pair of castings in modeling resin in 1:35 scale from the Czech maker CMK. The set is not a kit of equipment; these are figures that are added to a finished model or to a diorama base. The theme of the set is figures caught in a quiet moment, that is in poses that differ markedly from upright standing figures.

The figures and placing them

A relaxed pose means a seated or leaning figure with bent limbs and with the center of gravity off the axis of the body. In practice that has two consequences. First, figures like these do not stand on their own and need support: a crate, a stone, the side of a hull, a low wall. Second, they are placed into a scene only at the end, because their position follows from what is actually in the scene. Always build the terrain first, therefore, and only then look for where exactly the casting will seat. That is precisely what sets this set apart from pairs modeled for a flat base, which can be stood anywhere.

Working with the casting

On figures in a relaxed position the casting blocks tend to be on the underside of the legs and on the back, that is on the surfaces that will then rest on the support. Cut them off with a fine-toothed saw and level the surface flat on abrasive paper laid on the table, as only then will the casting seat with no gap. The parting line on this set passes through the folds of the cloth, which is the most sensitive place in the whole cleaning up: sanding too hard will wipe the fold away and the surface then looks flat. Work with fine paper and restore the edge with a knife where you have sanded it away. Wash the parts in warm water with detergent because of the mold release agent, glue them with cyanoacrylate glue and fill the gaps with putty. Sand with respiratory protection.

Painting

Relaxed poses stand or fall with the folds of the cloth, so after the base do not spare the wash that runs into the recesses, and brighten the raised surfaces. Paint the figure separately from the base and join them only once finished, otherwise you will not reach the lower folds with a brush.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of 1:35 dioramas who need resting rather than upright poses
  • Modelers who like painting cloth and folds and want to practice a wash on them
  • More experienced builders familiar with cutting and sanding resin
  • Collectors who paint figures individually for a display case

The figures are supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

The resting poses assume support: a crate, a stone, the side of a hull. Before you glue a casting on, test dry what exactly it will seat against.

With cyanoacrylate glue. Cement for plastic does not work on resin. Fill larger gaps with thicker cyanoacrylate or with modeling putty.

Mold release agent remains on the surface of a casting. Without washing in warm water with detergent, neither the base nor the paint will bond with the surface and they peel off later.

It is better to paint it separately and join them at the end. Otherwise you will not reach the lower folds with a brush and the paint will be uneven.
