| The Belgian craftsman well known and
appreciated for his resin kits (STAMPE and Mirage III in particular), also
produces figures and accessories in the usual 3 scales. Here are some
examples:
Ref. 72111 Pilots seated
WWI
The 2 sprues of resin provide 2 pilots (one could be German), extra-fine
moulded; taking into account the scale. One with the glasses on the
nose, and other in a more "relaxed" pose with the flying helmet
unhooked and the face turned to the side. Amazing and useful for
your lovely "stringbags". Rush on your brushes.

Ref. 72112 modern
French Pilots seated
2 splendid pilots of the Air Force on a single bunch this time. The
poses are different and are inspired from known photographs.
The first has the oxygen mask off and making a hand gesture, the other
with the folded back visor making a salute. Required for your dioramas.

Ref. 48114 US NAVY
Pilot
Superb subject in 4 parts of a pilot of A-7 or A-4. Details are well
rendered (light and case), in a interesting pose. |

Ref. 48115 modern Pilot RAF
This time it's an RAF pilot who
will find a place in all the modern jets of her Majesty. The oxygen mask in
place, the visor raised and the right hand posed with middle height
suggest Quick Reaction Alert or another position of Scramble. As
with all the preceding figures...this has delicate harness and
facial detail that will show up well under subtle painting. |

Modern ref. 321101 Pilot
9 parts on 2 sprues whose option with a head and a separate helmet
will enable you to animate your jets on this large scale. In
fact it would be very appropriate for an F104 (by adding the back-type
parachute) and will
position without grief on the following accessory for which it is
intended. The additional helmet will find its place in another jet
or in back place of Starfighter if you attempt a conversion...
Highly recommended taking into account the quality and the lack of
competition in the market for this scale. |

Ref. 32111 access
ladder
Here's a 1/32 crew access ladder, specifically designed for the
F104. The 14 parts in resin once assembled constitute an imposing
unit. The frame is in 7 parts, and the 7 other parts are the steps which
will be necessary to carefully glue so they are square with the frame
pieces. Bent access rails are made out of brass wire with a resin
jig to obtain the correct shape. Thanks to the very clear instructions, it
is not a problem. You can now position your pilot (see above) on
this ladder. For an incredible single seat jet display. Highly
recommended.
