A figure of a US Air Force mechanic from the time of the Korean War in 1:32 scale. It will enliven an airfield scene and a display case with a finished model of an aircraft.
Responsibility details are not available.
Without ground personnel no squadron would take off. A mechanic refilled the fuel and oxygen, checked the engine and the armament, filled the magazines and between flights repaired whatever the crew brought back damaged. Unlike a pilot he worked in work clothes, with a cap or without a head covering, and his stance tends to be a working one, not a representative one. The figure captures such a mechanic of the US Air Force from the time of the Korean War, that is, from the beginning of the 1950s, in 1:32 scale.
In the package there is one figure of a mechanic in 1:32 scale. In this scale even small detail of the clothing and the hands stands out, so the figure will find use directly beside a finished model. How many parts it consists of and how they fit together is given in the instructions enclosed by the manufacturer.
Cut the excess material off with a sharp blade a little way from the part and sand the remainder, so that the folds of the work clothing stay preserved. Before painting, wash and degrease the figure, as otherwise the paint does not hold. Work clothing will bear a dirtier rendering than a pilot's coverall, so with it light toning and emphasizing the folds with dry brushing pay off. Paint the face and hands before you seat the figure in a scene. Choose the kind of glue according to the material of the figure and the particular procedure according to the manufacturer's instructions.
The figure is for modelers who want to show the work on the ground alongside an aircraft and to give a scene action and scale. The package contains only the figure; a model, tools, paints and glue are not included, unless stated otherwise.
