1:32 scale
Our Hotchkiss H39 model is a revolution in scale modelling. It is the first complete, highly detailed tank model in this scale that can rival with traditionally produced models. In fact many parts simply cannot be produced by traditional techniques and the level of detail in this kits eliminates the need for after market sets.
Our design incorporates innovative ideas such as pre-assembled single link tracks and a modular approach so you will get the items you want.
This model is optimized for 3D printing. What does this mean? It means we understand the charachteristics of the printers and know how to use them in the best possible way. This is the reason our kit has many parts: the more parts the better the quality. Sounds logical? Unfortunately many designers do not seem to care. We do care and do not take shortcuts in our designs.
Set 1 contains most of the small items for the Hotchkiss. This includes the running gear, tools, hull sides and floor as well as numerous other parts.
This set needs to be combined with
Set 2 (option A or B) and
Set 3 to build a full tank. The trench skid in
Set 4 is optional, as is the interior of
Set 5 (option A, B or C).
