1:87 - HALF TRACK SD.KFZ 10 - (2 PACK)
Overview
This is a scalemodel of the German 'Sd.Kfz 10'; a 1 ton half-track for HO model railroads. The vehicle could carry 8 soldiers (6 in the back) and was widely used on all fronts as a prime mover for small towed guns and trailers. This product contains 2 versions of the halftrack; convertible canvas top in 'open' and 'closed' position. Link to my other HO models

Painting
Before painting, always degrease your model in a glass of lukewarm water and a drop of dishwashing soap (do not use a dishwasher!). Allow it to dry completely before painting.
Aplie a thin layer of paint, use 'drybrush' techniques to bring the detail alive. Paint the inside, tracks and figures first before gluing. If you don't have a lot of experience; watch multiple 'tutorials' on youtube about painting model vehicles. You can't rush art, so take your time to finish the model ;).
Scale 1:87
1:87 is 'H0' scale for model railroads, half the size of '0 scale' ("hah-null").
