About product

A motorcycle driver in one sixteenth

A collectible figure of a German military motorcyclist from the period of the Second World War, meant according to the name for the R75 motorcycle. The pose matches a man behind the handlebars, so the figure makes sense above all in connection with the matching machine or as a standalone study of a figure.

Why a large scale suits figures

One sixteenth is a rewarding size for figures. The face, the fingers on the grips and the buckles on the equipment are large enough to be painted without a magnifier, and the reward is a result that holds up even up close. At the same time nothing hides here: an unfinished transition between the cheeks or coarsely applied paint is apparent at first glance.

The recommended painting procedure

Finish the figure separately from the machine and approach it in layers. First lay down the base tones, and only then shade the recesses and brighten the raised places. The skin calls for the finest transitions, so leave it for a time when you have a steady hand. If you seat the figure on the motorcycle, align it dry before gluing, so that the hands seat on the handlebars and the feet on the footrests without forcing.

Who the figure is for

  • builders of large-scale dioramas with period equipment
  • modelers who want to bring a finished model to life with a figure
  • anyone interested in painting figures with a large area of detail
  • collectors who display individual figures on their own
  • anyone interested in period equipment and its crews in a large scale

FAQ

The state of the surface does not follow from the name of the item, so it is not stated here. The painting procedure described above reckons with your finishing the figure yourself.

The pose matches a man behind the handlebars, so it comes off best seated on the matching motorcycle. On its own it serves as a study of a figure on a base.

The name connects it with the R75 type. On another motorcycle the seated pose will call for reworking, mainly in the angle of the arms and the feet.

The large areas make the work easier, but at the same time nothing is forgiven. It pays to proceed in thin layers and to leave the skin for last.
