About product

RFC airman number 3 in 1:32 scale

The third sequence number of the line of British airmen from the brand Black Dog. The abbreviation RFC points to the Royal Flying Corps, which existed until the spring of 1918 - the figure therefore belongs to the period of the first fighters with an open cockpit.

A figure in its own right for a display case

An individual number does not have to end up on a base with a model. In 1:32 scale a figure is large enough to stand up as an object in its own right on a small plinth in a display case, where the working of the face and the folds of the clothing can be seen. For this way of displaying it pays to choose a neutral base without terrain, which does not compete with the figure for attention, and to light it with a spot from the front and above. Under side lighting, on the contrary, the shadows in the folds will stand out, which anyone who has taken trouble over the modeling of the surface will appreciate.

The face decides

With a figure displayed on its own the result stands or falls with the head. Proceed from a middle skin tone through a thinned dark shade into the eye sockets, under the nose and under the lower lip, all the way to brightening the forehead, the cheekbones and the bridge of the nose. Paint the eyes at the very end and rather suggest them with a dark line than draw them in detail - an exactly rendered white of the eye comes across as rigid in this scale. Do the hair and any beard with drybrushing over a dark base.

Who the figure suits

  • Collectors who display individual figures in a display case
  • Modelers of British machines from the period of the First World War
  • Those who put a crew together from several numbers of the same line
  • Anyone interested in painting faces in a larger scale

FAQ

Yes. In 1:32 scale it stands up on a plinth of its own as a display case object, on which the working of the head and the folds of the clothing can be seen well.

A spotlight from the front and above shows the face, side light accentuates the shadows in the folds. Diffuse light from above, on the contrary, suppresses the modeling of the surface.

The individual items are carried under their sequence numbers, but the particular composition between them is not stated here. Count on comparing them before buying several pieces.
