1:35 Metro DPP fire unit, City of Prague 1980 is a figure subject of the works fire unit of the Prague metro of 1980.
Responsibility details are not available.
The abbreviation DPP stands for Dopravni podnik hlavniho mesta Prahy, the Prague public transport company. This subject in 1:35 scale is tied to the works fire unit of the metro as it looked in 1980. It is one of the few figure subjects that aim at an underground and technical setting instead of a battlefield.
The firefighting dress of the time was built on a dark working color, a simple helmet and leather accessories; reflective elements were not yet a matter of course. The equipment was bulky but more angular than today's, which is clearly apparent in the silhouette. A metro setting also means artificial lighting, and that affects how you light the scene in a display case as well.
A tunnel, a service corridor, a platform, a depot or an emergency vehicle at the entrance. A spare vignette with a concrete wall and a hose also looks good, where the contrast of the gray surroundings and the dark dress stands out. Anyone who builds transport models can link the subject with the company's vehicle fleet.
Leave the gray concrete of the background cold and on the contrary shift the figure toward a warmer tone, so that it separates from the wall. Paint the helmet with a hard highlight on the crown and leave the leather parts in a saturated brown shade. A little soot and dust on the lower part of the trousers will give the setting a working character.
