Diorama Figure SetForensic Investigation at the Crime Scene(No. S134)1:18

Crime Scene Investigation – 5 Figures, Unpainted (No. S134)

This complete set depicts a crime scene investigation team with forensic technicians and a police officer. Different working positions, protective clothing and equipment items allow for a varied police and crime scene setting for dioramas, model vehicles and matching model railway environments.

• Crime Scene Investigation: Forensic Technician with Case: Walking figure in a protective suit with hood, face mask, overshoes and a carried case.
• Crime Scene Investigation: Forensic Technician with Camera: Forward-leaning figure in a protective suit holding a camera with both hands.
• Kneeling Forensic Technician: Kneeling figure with hood, mask and gloves, holding a pistol over a transparent bag.
• Man in Antivirus Suit with Hood and Face Mask (a50): Upright standing figure in full protective clothing with slightly extended hands.
• Police Officer in Coat with Outstretched Hands (a63): Standing police officer in a long coat with tie and both raised, open hands.

The five resin figures are supplied unpainted and with support structures. This allows them to be primed and individually painted to suit your own crime scene, police or emergency diorama. This is model-making accessory, not a toy.

Scales and Suitable Projects

1:18 is particularly suitable for large model cars, garage dioramas and collector's display cases. 1:20 suits larger dioramas and special models in this scale. 1:22.5 is an appropriate choice for garden railway and Gauge II emergency scenes. 1:24 is suitable for model cars and detailed street or garage scenes. 1:32 suits Gauge I layouts as well as scenes beside vehicles or a slot car track. 1:35 is suitable for vehicle dioramas and classic plastic model building. 1:43 complements model cars and die-cast collections with a compact crime scene. 1:48 suits vehicle dioramas and environments in US O Scale. 1:50 is suitable for architectural and city models depicting a police operation. 1:64 is suitable for small model cars and compact die-cast dioramas.

Practical Uses

For a garage diorama with a model car, 1:18 or 1:24 are especially suitable; 1:43 and 1:64 are appropriate versions for smaller die-cast vehicles. The forensic technician with camera and the kneeling figure can be positioned directly beside the vehicle.

A workshop on a model railway can be designed as a cordoned-off investigation site using the figures. 1:22.5 is suitable for Gauge II or garden railways, 1:32 for Gauge I and 1:48 for a US O Scale environment.

In a 1:35 or 1:48 vehicle diorama, the group forms a complete investigation scene: the forensic technician with case arrives while the camera figure and kneeling figure occupy the central investigation area.

For a 1:50 city or architectural model, the set can be used in front of a building, in a parking lot or in a courtyard. The police officer with outstretched hands is suitable as a communicative figure at the edge of the scene.

In a collector's display case, the five figures can be presented as a cohesive crime scene investigation group. It is essential to select the same scale as the existing vehicle and the other diorama components.
