About product

The real subject

The set treats a pair of American soldiers on the Afghan deployment, a driver and a gunner. It is this pair that makes up the crew of most modern wheeled vehicles and patrol carriers, so the set fills exactly the places whose emptiness is most striking on a finished model. The 1:35 scale matches ordinary military vehicle kits.

Where the figures belong

The driver is seated in the cab, the gunner at the weapon on the roof or in a cupola. With both of them the seating differs from kit to kit, so try the figures dry first and only then glue them. An empty vehicle looks static; a pair of crew gives it movement and scale. The composition of the set and the breakdown of the parts are given in the manufacturer's instructions.

Building and painting tips

Wash the parts in lukewarm soapy water and let them dry so that the paint holds. Cut any excess material away a little distance from the part with a sharp blade and sand the remainder with fine abrasive paper. Choose both glue and paints to match the material of the parts. Paint the face and the hands before you seat the figure in the vehicle, because afterwards a brush will no longer reach them. Shade the uniform from the base tone to the shadows in the folds and finally to the highlights on the edges.

Who it is for

For modelers of modern American hardware who want to man a vehicle with people, and for builders of patrol and convoy scenes.

Paints, glue and a base are not part of the delivery, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

The name gives two roles, a driver and a gunner. The exact breakdown of the parts is in the manufacturer's instructions.

The 1:35 scale matches, but cabs and gunner's positions differ from kit to kit. Try the figures dry first.

They are not, painting is up to the modeler. Paints and glue are not part of the delivery.

First wash and degrease the parts, then clean off the excess material, paint the face and the hands, and only at the very end seat the figure in the vehicle.
