About product

Pierre H. Clostermann, an RAF pilot in 1:48 scale

A single-figure resin set from the Czech manufacturer CMK depicting a French fighter pilot who flew the war with the Royal Air Force. The figure is conceived for a model of the Tempest fighter in 1:48 scale, but it will serve in any scene with a pilot beside his machine. The aircraft is not included.

Who Pierre Clostermann was

He was born in 1921, took up flying before the war and after the fall of France joined the units fighting on the British side. He served with the Alsace squadron on Spitfires, later moving to the Hawker Tempest Mk V, with which he attacked airfields and transport targets over northern Germany. He gave his machine the nickname Le Grand Charles. Around thirty aerial victories are credited to him, although the exact tally differs between sources. After the war he became well known for his memoirs as well.

The painting procedure

British flying equipment of the second half of the war rests on a combination of a brown leather jacket, a lighter flight suit and a life vest in yellow or orange. The contrast between the vest and the rest of the clothing holds the whole figure together, so leave it the most prominent. The straps and buckles come out with a thin line of dark wash. Build the face on a mid flesh tone and only then add the shadows and highlights, otherwise the figure looks flat.

Suitable for

  • Builders of British fighters of the closing part of the war
  • Collectors of portrait figures of famous pilots
  • Makers of scenes on a field airfield
  • Modelers who want to give a model a human dimension

It is sold without paint; the modeler chooses the shades of the equipment.

FAQ

It is based on the pilot of a Tempest fighter, but it suits other British machines of the closing part of the war as well.

One, as the designation of the item also suggests.

The usual combination is a brown leather jacket, a lighter flight suit and a prominent life vest in a yellow or orange tone.

Resin castings have to be washed, cleaned of casting remnants and glued with cyanoacrylate. A careful beginner can manage it.
