ICM 48083 - 1/48 USAF Pilots and Ground Personnel (1941-1945)

The ICM 48083 figure set reproduces pilots and ground personnel from the 1941-1945 period in 1/48 scale. Each plastic figure shows period detailing to help modellers accurately populate airfield scenes and add human interest to aircraft displays.

Why These Figures Matter

Figures add scale reference and life to dioramas, and the styling of these pieces reflects typical uniforms and working poses from the USAAF era. Including a handful of well painted crew figures can transform a plain model into a convincing historical vignette.

Practical Tips for Painting and Posing

These parts benefit from gentle cleaning before assembly and fine brushwork for uniform shading. Use thin layers of paint and consider subtle weathering to match the aircraft and base surfaces in your display.

Yes, remove any mould lines and clean connection points for a neat fit prior to assembly.
Some seated poses may fit cockpits, but check dimensions first as these are primarily intended for ground scenes and external displays.
Acrylic or enamel modelling paints work well; use fine brushes for insignia and face details, and seal with a matt varnish if desired.
The set contains the figures shown; it does not list extra accessories, so plan to use aftermarket items or scratchbuilt gear if you need additional props.
