    Few interesting facts about Skoda RSO. When loaded the fuel consumption was increased to almost 600l/100km. Prototype had perforated rims , due the stress deformations they had to switched to solid design A massive 6624ccm engine was using as a starter two cylinder air cooled engine. It was a derivate (a half) from famous VW Kubelvagen engine. The plan was to build 450 vehicles every month between the factories in Mlada Boleslav and Plzen. Ferdinand Porshe was present on test trials, where it become very apparent that the design didn't achieve the main objective, deal with the mud of the Eastern Front. ( the vehicle was digging itself into the mud) By the end of 1942 Skoda factory produced 10 vehicles. Production started in 1943 and was cancelled in April of the same year , producing 154 vehicles. Another 42 pieces were assembled from stored parts.

    I believe they're planned for the eastern front, but due it's poor performance, they were placed as a roadblocks in the West

    Hey Girls, I picked this up today. Frankly I have no idea what I am doing here. Let's blame Carl for his inspiring Dingo build, his Dingo took my common sense or whatever was left of it :), If you feel like you want to ask me questions, keep it mind please. Initially I was under impression that this car is British, but it is actually Chevy . This should be fun build, the marking will be either Belgian or British. I am naturaly inclining towards Belgians, just because of the nature of their fight, anyway Belgians are cool. All I need is a photograph of the vehicle to get an idea of the battle driven look. If you can help, please hang some pictures as we go, I will be most grateful . The box I like the soft Italian plastic, remember the old days with Italaerei models, Blitz, 105 howitzer, good times This is one of the marking options , I have noticed a different location of the .30cal and antennas instead of periscopes. Mangled fender sets it apart.

    Fits bang on, the whole segment. I did tried and then passed the project to William. Well minor filling the mating point is necessary, but not much.

    or , what if the dingo was just a scapegoat, then it should be"the goat took my baby" back to the dingo
  19. Martinnfb
    That should be the title of this topic... the dingo took my baby... ...or a bad dingo

    Nice start on this weird looking rover Carl. Lots of detail for such small kit.
  21. Martinnfb
    That will stay a mystery to all of us

    No masking, fully assembled, you have what? 4 holes to spray the paint into, then you mask them with sponge and you're ready for camouflage. Not sure if that makes sense? Internals have more-less the same colour , unless you have different finish in mind.

    Harvey wouldn't make sense to assemble everything without paint and then hit the visible details afterwards ? I mean this is very simplistic airframe , plus what-if build. Just an idea.

    I have a Breda for you. The Italeri one , that comes with Tamiya LRDG chevy.
