A loader serving an 82 mm mortar is the subject of the figure 1:35 Ukrainian 82mm Caliber Mortar Loader (1pc) from the Ukrainian maker Spalah.
Responsibility details are not available.
The figure stands for a particular task within the crew: the loader is the one who places the ammunition into the weapon. That gives the figure a characteristic stance which reads in a diorama scene even without the surrounding context. According to the name the box holds one piece, and the scale matches the usual military 1:35.
A loader makes sense above all paired with a model of a mortar and with another crew figure, because only then does a readable working scene come about. If you are building the scene step by step, this figure tends to be a good one to start with: it sets the spacing between the weapon and the rest of the group. The Ukrainian brand Spalah also has other members of the same crew as separate items.
First get the grease off the resin surface, otherwise the primer will lift in places. Take the print supports off with a knife and level the area wet with fine paper. For gluing, cyanoacrylate in gel form works well, because it allows small adjustments of the stance. Close the painting with a matte varnish, which evens out the sheen between skin, cloth and gear.
The casting is unpainted and unassembled; the box does not include the needed shades and bonding compounds, unless stated otherwise.
