Welcome to the club. I am making ZIS-5 and ZIS-6 trucks from scratch in 1/72 scale (these are going to be complete, faithful and terribly small replicas).
why the HELL would you make a 1/72 scale TRUCK???
Diorama elements?
from what I can gather from the books, the fan rotor diameter is 100cm. so, at 1:10 it would be 10cm or @3"
THAT sets the baseline for the fan I need, and thus the electric motors, thence the batteries, etc...
I need HARD DIMENSIONS to begin designing around, y'dig?
