1/16 WWI French Airplane Pilot

The 1/16 WWI French Airplane Pilot from Dynamo Models offers an exceptional representation of an early 20th-century military aviator during the First World War. This high-quality resin figure kit captures the style and character of a French pilot serving in the Aéronautique Militaire around 1914–1918.

Sculpted with fine attention to detail, the figure is supplied with two interchangeable heads: one wearing a leather flying helmet with goggles down, and the other featuring a soft pilot’s cap with an expressive facial sculpt. This gives modelers the flexibility to customize their build for various settings, whether grounded for briefing or preparing to take flight.

At 1/16 scale, this pilot is ideal for pairing with large-scale aircraft models or as a stand-alone figure in a historical aviation diorama. The uniform includes period-accurate flight gear, such as the long leather coat, high boots, and gloves, evoking the rugged conditions of open-cockpit flying during WWI.

The figure is designed to reflect the bravery and innovation of early aviation personnel who operated in a time when flying was both experimental and dangerous. French pilots, many of whom became legendary aces, played a significant role in shaping the air war during WWI, and this figure pays tribute to their contributions.

This figure is an excellent choice for collectors of Great War memorabilia, aviation enthusiasts, or anyone building a detailed historical scene from the early 20th century. It also serves as an ideal base for weathering, painting techniques, or fine-detail customization thanks to its clean and crisp resin casting.

Note: The figure is unassembled and unpainted. Modeling tools, glue, and paint are not included.
