About product

Firefighter with a hose of 1983 in 1:72 scale

The figure captures a different phase of an incident from a firefighter at the fire nozzle. Running out and leading the hoses is the work that precedes the attack and without which the water does not reach the fire; in a setting it therefore creates movement away from the vehicle. The small 1:72 ratio allows a whole scene to be built in an area that fits into an ordinary display case.

The role of the figure in an incident

The man is handling a hose, that is either running the line out or carrying it to the spot. Paired with a figure at the nozzle a legible story arises: one carries, the other puts the fire out. The year in the designation refers to 1983, when turnout gear had a different cut and different colors from today's equipment, so the figure goes with vehicles of the same period.

Finishes and weathering

The textile of the turnout gear comes to life when a dry brush a shade lighter is drawn over the base tone and the folds are underlined with thinned dark paint. Leave the helmet smooth on the contrary, so that it can be told it is made of a different material. On the hose a slight darkening of the lower part helps, because in a real incident it is precisely there that water and dirt from the roadway settle. Leave the hands for the end and paint them a shade darker than the face; on a man in a work glove or after handling a dirty line that matches reality.

Field of use

  • paired with a firefighter at the fire nozzle
  • beside a tanker while the line is run out
  • in a diorama of a fire in a building or a workshop
  • in a collection of rescue vehicles of the 1980s

FAQ

This figure works with the hose line, while the man with the fire nozzle stands at the end of the line and aims the water. When you place them side by side, a viewer fills in for himself how the incident is going.

Suggest the line with wire run from the figure to the outlet on the vehicle and cover the joints with a drop of putty. Leave the curve loose, because a taut hose in a scene gives away that it is a modeling substitute.

Use a gloss overcoat applied only where water would really stand, that is into the hollows of the roadway and on the bottom of the footwear. Sheen over the whole area on the contrary looks artificial and does the scene more harm than good.
