About product

Firefighter with a nozzle, the year 1983, 1:16 scale

The figure captures a firefighter in action with a fire nozzle, that is with the end fitting of a hose by which the jet of water is directed. The subject comes from 1983 and belongs to the range of Czech themes from the MN-hobby brand. The nozzle he holds sets the stance of the whole figure, which makes it a rewarding center for a smaller setting.

How to build a scene around the figure

An incident setting does not need much: a piece of roadway or yard, a hose running from the edge of the base and ideally a model of firefighting vehicles in the same scale. The hose can be suggested with a suitably shaped piece of string or wire with a surface finish; more important than the material is a natural sag. It is better not to model the jet of water unless you are sure of yourself; a failed effect draws more attention than the figure itself.

What to keep in mind while painting

Turnout gear is rewarding in that it is made up of several large areas between which contrast can be worked. Set the helmet apart with a different sheen and bring out the edge of its brim, so that the figure does not look flat. Keep the soiling near the ground, that is on the footwear and the lower part of the trouser legs, and let it thin out upward. A wet look on part of the gear can be suggested with a spot satin varnish, but carefully and only in places the water would really reach. The metal parts of the fitting on the contrary will take a distinct sheen, so that they are set apart from the textile surface of the gear.

Who the figure is for

  • Collectors of firefighting vehicles and accessories for them
  • Builders of incident dioramas in 1:16 scale
  • Modelers with an interest in the 1980s
  • Those looking for a figure in a pronounced working pose

FAQ

The end fitting of a fire hose, by which the jet of water is directed and shaped during an incident.

What exactly the package contains is stated on the box; a hose is easy to add yourself with wire or string.

From the bottom upward and with decreasing intensity; continuous dirt over the whole figure looks unconvincing.
