About product

British driver of the Defender Wolf, 1:35

The collector figure of a British driver of the Defender Wolf vehicle in 1:35 scale from Black Dog belongs among the figures tied to a particular type of hardware. The Defender Wolf off-road car served British units in Afghanistan as a light transport and liaison vehicle.

A figure tied to a vehicle

A driver figure follows a different logic from figures on foot: it is not meant to stand at a base but to sit behind the wheel. An open cab or an uncovered roof on the model therefore turns the figure into the most conspicuous detail of the whole vehicle, because the viewer's eye always goes to a human figure first. A manned model also stops looking like a parked exhibit at once and starts to look like a vehicle on the move.

What to watch out for when seating it

Always try the figure dry in the particular model first: seats, steering wheel and pedals differ between kits and a small adjustment to the legs is common. Paint only once the seating is certain, and skimp on the areas hidden by the bodywork; give the time to the head and the hands instead. Add the dust effects on the footwear only at the end, so that they match the vehicle. It also pays to check that room is left for the steering column once the figure is in place, because that is usually the biggest obstacle when gluing a finished figure.

Who the figure is for

  • Builders of models of British off-road vehicles
  • Modelers who want their vehicle manned by a crew
  • Collectors of modern figures in 1:35 scale
  • Those building a scene from the Afghan deployment

FAQ

Not necessarily. Interiors differ between kits, so try the figure dry before painting and adjust the position of the legs if need be.

It is not necessary. Concentrate on the head, the hands and the upper body, that is on what stays visible once the vehicle is closed up.

The military off-road version of a British light car, which British units used among other places during the deployment in Afghanistan.
