About product

Anti-tank dragon teeth in 1:35 from Gecko Models

The set brings the so-called dragon teeth – concrete pyramids that were built in rows across the terrain during the Second World War to stop the advance of tracked vehicles. The designation Small Type in the name refers to the smaller of the sizes used. It is a scenery element for 1:35 scale, not a model of a combat vehicle.

Where the dragon teeth were built

Concrete obstacles of this kind formed the backbone of permanent fortified lines. They were laid in several rows one behind the other, usually combined with a ditch, a minefield and firing positions, so a tank could not drive straight through and had to look for a way around under fire. In many places in western and central Europe they still stand today; their concrete is worn, overgrown with moss and in places the reinforcement shows through.

Setting them up and painting them

The pyramids look best when they do not stand on a level surface as if on parade – sink them partly into the ground, tilt them slightly and let soil pile up around them. The basis of the painting is a gray concrete shade, over which a darker wash into the joints and dry-brushing on the edges will sit well. Pigments add dust and mud to the lower parts, and the green of moss is made by stippling a very dark green.

Who the set suits

  • builders of dioramas of fighting on fortified lines
  • modelers looking for a static element to bring a scene to life
  • everyone who wants to give a vehicle in 1:35 the context of a landscape
  • beginners who want to try out the weathering of concrete

FAQ

No. These are terrain obstacles that complete the setting around finished vehicles or figures.

The manufacturer does not give the count in the product name. The figure is stated on the packaging of the item.

Start from a light gray with a hint of beige and bring the shade to life with a wash into the joints and dry-brushing along the edges.

Yes. Obstacles like these survived in the landscape long after 1945, so they can be placed in a more modern scene too.
