About product

French FT-17 Light Tank Crew and Orderly 1:35 – Meng figures

The plastic figure set French FT-17 Light Tank Crew and Orderly in 1:35 scale from Meng. It is not a model of the tank but a set of three figures – two crew members of the French FT-17 light tank and an orderly – completed by a period Peugeot motorcycle of 1917. The scene captures the orderly passing orders to the tank commander. For the exact package contents, follow the instructions.

The real subject

The Renault FT-17 was a French light tank of the First World War and a pioneer of the layout with a rotating turret. The crew consisted of two men – a driver and a commander. Orderlies on motorcycles of that time carried orders between units. The figures capture the uniforms of the period and natural gestures; the set also offers alternative parts, for example a helmet, a beret and a face mask.

Building and painting tips

Clean the flash off the parts and glue them with a cement for plastic; glue the small parts of the motorcycle with cyanoacrylate glue. Spray a primer, tone the uniforms with washes into the folds and shade the faces and the hands with oils. Finish the motorcycle with metal and leather in mind – polish the chrome and the painted surfaces and keep the saddle muted.

Who the set is for

  • For builders of First World War dioramas
  • For collectors of figures in 1:35 scale
  • For owners of an FT-17 model who want to bring the scene to life
  • For the more experienced in painting figures and a motorcycle

The figures are supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
