Congratulations Alex!

[Guest]

Glad you all like it. It's a rare beast indeed. They were built for use on the Eastern Front during the harsh winters. A few did find their way to France during the Normandy campaign though

Here's a nice pic of one that was abandoned. Western Europe by the look of it - most probably France.

Online from 'Modelhobbies' - I think it was about 34.00 GBP. Will be a while before this one gets built as I'm so busy right now, but it will be an epic build looking at the number of parts, including photo-etch (which I've never work with before)!

Sure the ride was horrid - but there was a bunk in the back of the cab apparently

[Guest]

I would never crave for a Skoda not even if it was 34.00 or given to me free. Joking aside though this Skoda looks like it will be fun to build.

Nice score Alex.

Im lusting an RSO for my stash as well (which is waaaaay too big) I like the look of the roundish cab rso,'s

I think im more addicted to buying models than making them at the moment -.-

Hopefully we will get a build log to go with your rso

Skoda, nice to see they have evolved a bit these days !

[geegad]

really am looking forward to seeing this build when ever you get it started
