Practical Uses

• For a garage diorama with a model car, the two standing mechanics create an active polishing and working scene; 1:18, 1:24 or 1:43 are especially suitable.
• A bodywork and paint shop can be depicted with all four figures: the different heights and poses bring work areas beside vehicles or body parts to life.
• For a workshop on a model railway, 1:22.5 is suitable for Gauge II or garden railways and 1:32 for Gauge I. The scale should match the layout and vehicles used.
• At a 1:32 slot car racetrack, the figures can complement a repair, maintenance or workshop scene away from the track.
• For a vehicle diorama in plastic model building, 1:35 and 1:48 are suitable versions, while 1:50 fits particularly well into an architectural or city model with a workshop building.

The figures are model-making accessory and not a toy. Before painting, the support structures must be removed and the surfaces prepared accordingly.
