Here's a quick build of Mark 1 Models tiny 1/720 scale blimp!  To give a sense of how small it is it's held up by a dress making pin.  Only 17 parts but some of thr smallest pieces I have ever seen!  the wheels on the mooring tower and the tractor are tiny.  Made a tiny fuel lorry from sprue as well - although it looks a bit lonely.  Fun to build, hope they like it at the local model club!
