About product

Royal Marines of 1982 in 1:35 scale

A thematic Black Dog figure set focused on the Royal Marines units deployed in the South Atlantic in 1982. The 1:35 scale keeps the usual proportion against vehicles and artillery in the same scale, so the figures can be set beside the hardware without a distracting difference in size.

The historical background of the scene

The battlefield was treeless, wind-swept country of peat bogs, stone runs and low ridges. British units covered most of the distance from the landing beaches to the capital on foot, with a full load on their backs and in constant sleet. The bulky winter kit that the subject of the set carries matches this setting, and it is worth respecting that on the base.

The groundwork the scene shows off on

Build the terrain low and gently undulating: peat hags, a trodden ribbon of muddy path, scattered stones. It works best when the groundwork is darker and more matte than the figures, as they then stand out from the surface. A saturated dark tone into the folds and light brightening of the edges of the kit will give the clothing depth. Leave the footwear and the lower part of the trouser legs noticeably soiled, otherwise the scene looks artificially clean.

Who the set suits

  • builders of scenes from conflicts of the second half of the twentieth century
  • collectors of British equipment and hardware in 1:35
  • modelers who want an escort on foot for a vehicle
  • anyone looking for a subject outside the usual range of Second World War figures

FAQ

Any vehicle or gun in 1:35 scale; that is the most widespread scale for ground hardware and the figures match it in size.

A low peat plain with stone outcrops and a muddy path. The country of the South Atlantic is treeless, so tall vegetation does not belong on the base.

The kit is tied to the start of the eighties, so it does not suit a Second World War or a present-day scene without a noticeable contradiction.
