About product

A soldier with a machete in the 1:35 reduction

A figure captured with a machete belongs in scenes where dense vegetation is being passed through. The nationality and the tool in the hand follow from the name of the item. How many parts the package contains, what the casting is made of and how tall the finished figure will be is not given in the name, so it is not stated here.

What scene to build from the figure

A machete suggests the action by itself: cutting a way through, clearing an overgrown road for a vehicle, a stop at the edge of growth. Lush greenery, climbing plants and tall grass therefore belong around the figure. The contrast between the sweeping movement of the arm and a calm background works well too, a standing vehicle for instance or a group of resting figures. For a display case a small round base and a few leafy plants are enough.

Assembly and painting

Try the joint at the shoulder of the arm that grips the tool dry before you seat it firmly: the angle decides the credibility of the whole shot. Paint the blade dark and then polish the edge finely with a silver paint applied with an almost dry brush, so that it looks outlined and not glossy all over. A sweat-soaked shirt gains depth from glazing, and the face benefits from an accentuating of the cheekbones and a shadow under the helmet.

Who it is for

  • Builders of tropical scenes with dense vegetation
  • Painters who want to practice bare skin and soaked cloth
  • Collectors of individual figures for smaller display cases
  • Modelers looking for a figure in action, not in a static stance

FAQ

The name does not give the count. With items of this kind one figure tends to be usual, but it is not stated here.

It is not necessary, but the figure benefits from one. A piece of terrain with leaves and grass gives the scene meaning and at the same time stabilizes the figure.

It comes off best with a dark undercoat and a fine polishing of the edge. A silver paint over the whole area looks flat and toylike.

Yes. The 1:35 reduction matches ordinary kits of equipment, so the figure fits beside a vehicle and a crew.
