Just got these from Robert Mathews, the MasterBox female with W^D figures and duckboards. I think he has done a brilliant job. I will be putting some more pic's on the W^D gallery.
Hi I don't suppose anybody has a sheet of the Decalcomaniacs rhomboid decals spare which they'd be interested in selling do they? I've looked on their ebay shop and they don't list them any more - I'm actually only interested in the ones for 'Perfect Lady'. andy
While perusing the work of the excellent Belgian illustrator James Thiriar I came across this sketch of troops making their way forward through characteristic Flanders weather. The object on the left looks familiar. If it is indeed the Field Kitchen donated by the citizens of Manchester, it will h...
Both military and civilian. It seems that German army and navy uniform hats were of the same basic design, of course with insignia and coloring different. ?Am I right? Also, did pretty much every European wear the same types of hats (fedoras, top hats, skimmers, "Andy Capp" hats), etc.?

As on the GWF I can't find the old topic for this - Regarding the Beamish gun - I believe there's been some question as to the identification of the gun as it could be one of two manufacturers. I naughtily hopped over the fence this weekend - can't see muc...

I am trying to collect information for the next lot of figures.One set I would like to get done is the above.From what I have gathered so far by 1918 the Lewis team consisted of 8 men (!!!!)

From time to time we stop to examine one of the unquestioned "facts" about our favourite invention. One which is automatically included in accounts of the Tank's development is that the predecessor of Little Willie was called "No. 1 Lincoln Machine." But was it? By whom was it...
There is a gun outside the courthouse at Modesto, Calif - this was identified as an FK 96 n.A but is a 75mm Krupp export gun possibly an M1910. There are similar guns in Australia captured from the Ottoman forces in Palestine - I thought it may have been one of these which had got to the US. I obtained some sh...
I recently got the Osprey book "U-Boats: 1914-1945" and noted that it depicted German naval uniforms as nearly identical throughout the era. ?I always wanted to depict the rebelling sailors of 1918, but deemed it just a pipe dream until I saw the book-and I have Dragon 1/35 figures of Diep...

Bonjour? I have a new interest in the use of artillery during the GW but I don't know well this subject. Through my reads I understood that: 1914 : shells are mostly of schrapnel type 1915 : extensive use of HE shells from end 1917 : to avoid cratering of the landscape (and to permit the use of tanks) new typ...
Dear all, ? I am not realy sure if this is the right section. I just received this picture. In fact this is no tank, but tracks and ... obviously German. But what is it? Anyone a clue? ? Regards Chris
I was scanning Google today when I cam across a program by?TurboSquid that renders objects in 3-dimensional format.? They have a program "Trucks of the World War 1 Time Period" which rendered some awesome 3D displays including a Model-T Ford Ambulance, FWD, Dennis,? LGOC omnibus, et ce...
