About product

A pin-up in an officer's uniform, 1:35 scale

A casting in polyurethane resin capturing a female figure in a kneeling pose, dressed in a stylized German officer's uniform of the period of the Second World War. It is not a documentary reconstruction of a particular person or unit but a genre piece in the spirit of period posters. Royal Model carries it in a line meant to enliven a display cabinet rather than a combat scene.

Where the genre came from

Poster beauties spread in the 1930s and 1940s: they decorated calendars, barrack lockers and the nose art of aircraft. The artists deliberately put them into exaggerated poses, where the uniform serves as a costume. Modelers reach for subjects like this as a counterweight to hardware - beside a tank or in a cabinet of its own the figure works as a witty accent.

How to handle a tiny piece

A figure in this scale measures about five centimeters, so it is the cleanliness of the surface that decides. Rinse the casting in warm water with dish soap and even out the mold parting line and the traces of casting with a fine file. Build the skin up with glazes from a light base toward the shadows, and suggest the stockings with a thin translucent layer, so that the skin tone shows through. Paint the eyes under a magnifier with the thinnest brush you have.

Who it is for

  • Collectors of figure pieces in the usual military scale
  • Modelers who like practicing skin tones
  • Makers of display cases and small vignettes
  • Seekers of an unusual companion piece to armor

The figure is supplied unpainted, without paints and without glue.

FAQ

The treatment is deliberately stylized. Documentary figures serve for studying period uniform; this piece is a genre one.

In 1:35 scale a human figure comes out at roughly five centimeters, and correspondingly less for a kneeling pose.

It is not essential. The base can be laid on with a spray can too, and at such small dimensions the piece itself is more comfortable to paint with a brush.
