Airfix - Opel Blitz Truck & Pak 40 - H0/00 Scale

[takeslousyphotos]

This is an old Airfix kit I picked up at IPMS.......... It is going to be a real challenge as it is teeny tiny H0/00 scale. I'm either going to make something of it or I'm going to bollix it right up. The mouldings don't look to bad and there is a bit of fine detail which surprised me.......... I've made a start on the wheels and tyres. ............. This'll be a build thread which will be either complete or will disappear into obscurity when I screw it up.

Dear wife/ Santa


Can I have a magnifying glass for xmas!!!!


This looks like it will be a different type of model kit for you but coming from your stable Peter I don't think you'll have any problems except the size eh??


Best of luck and nice choice

I had no idea what HO or OO scale were.... so I looked them up! HO is 1/87 & OO is 1/76, so good on you Peter for trying something like this!

This one will be really tiny ...but highly interesting as well!!


Good luck

Thanks Patrick. For the princely sum of £3.50 I figure it's no big deal if I make a Hash of it.

Just finished the Tamiya 1/35 a real nice truck but dont envy you building that scale. Be patient and stick with it. I will be watching this build.

Now this kit takes me back a bit, love it.
