ICM 35696 1/35 French Infantry in Gas Masks Figure Pack  [ICM-35696]

ICM 35696 - 1/35 French infantry figures wearing gas masks, 1918

This ICM 35696 release portrays French soldiers fitted with gas masks from late World War I. The 1/35 scale figures emphasise realistic posture and kit, letting modellers recreate tense frontline moments using accurate small-scale detail.

Context and Research Appeal

The advent of chemical attacks on the Western Front forced mass adoption of protective respirators. These four figures show that adaptation, providing a compact study of uniforms, straps and mask profiles valuable to anyone documenting WWI gear in miniature.

Construction Tips and Display Ideas

Expect fine parts that reward careful trimming and painting; adhesive and paints are required. Finished figures serve well in a trench scene or as focal characters in a small-scale vignette focused on gas alarm drills.
