This has been asked before (without much success): has anyone any idea what the dimensions (even basic ones) of the Latil TAR are? Even dimensions taken from a model kit (like the Azimut 1/35) would help.
I recently clicked the landship site on my home computer under favourites, only to find the site disabled, yet i can go straight into it with my Kindle. Is there something wrong. Funny how i can get on the site and read new posts and topics and reply. Any others experiencing this.
Hi all Can anyone recommend a range of 20mm figures I could use to accompany my mark 1? I'm specifically after a tankie to sit in the open hatch on the top. Cheers ?Phil
Hello, I?was getting ready to paint my 1/35 Commanders 21cm Morser.? However, I cannot get to the old Landships article on German Dot Camoflage since the site recently was removed from the web.? Does anyone have access to this article?? I can't move forward without it. Attached are several photos of...
Just been having another browse through T. Pidgeon's book, and it doesn't seem to say exactly how many Tanks were lost on the 15th. I know definitions of "lost" vary (temporarily OOA, recovered, etc) but I've found a reference that says two were "destroyed." Other details are...
Discussed the replicas used in the filmhereFound new photos of surviving vehicle, appearing to show that the acquisition was rather more legitimate than has been suggested. I've found out who BHP are, but can one of our Aussie friends throw any light on what the "Long Products Division"...
Hi All I was surfing for World War One tank photos and came across this site: ? http://wwimodeller.co.nz/ ? A good selection of photos, mostly of the Bovie tanks but pretty good none the less. ? Enjoy. Phil
The rain still hadn't washed away the snow from Polygon Wood yesterday morning, managed to spot four bunkers, believe there are five in total? ? ? [IMG]https://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk256...
This small monument commemorates the tank-v-tank encounter at Villers-Bretonneux. It's on the D168, near Cachy, but Google Street View is a bit hit-and-miss round those parts so I haven't been able to see it in situ. I have therefore had to borrow some images from other sites. Don't know who is respo...

I'm trying to convert a drawing to 1/32 scale and need a constant to work with. My assumption is the rear wheel diameter is 58 inches. -- Edited by 28juni14 on Tuesday 19t...
There's well-known photograph of Hyacinth, showing her stuck in a trench during the Battle of Cambrai in 1917; I attach a detail from this. ?Can anyone tell me what the Zs on the sponson signify and also what colour?they?were? Actually, there are two very similar photos, the second apparently taken...
Anyone come across accounts of French aircraft attacking A7V's at V-B or anwhere else for that matter? Does anyone know if French air units were over V-B during the A7V assault on the 2nd West Yorkshire Regiment? Particularly I am interested in any aircraft that may have been in the area that carried t...
Hi All
Browsing through a russian book I have, I found a couple interesting projects (late 19th century)
first picture on the left is a Turkish steam tracktor
second down on the left is a British steam armored car
last one on the left is a french catepillar armored train, designed to ave...
I enclose the 2nd part of my description of WW1 anti tank measures - this deals with the (rather bitty) Allied approach. There are many holes and I hope some of you may have further info (such as were any of those AT rifle grenades ever used?)
I've put picture references in the text and e...
Paul B posted this in another thread below: "Did you know that SHQ now have the Fine Scale Factory range of WW1 artillery available?" I certainly didn't, and thought this merited a dedicated thread since the SHQ homepage didn't show any news for ages to me. Thanks to Paul's hint I found this...
Hi could anyone tell me what type of 15pdr is referred to here: "Then he opened fire on Bruka with his own two fifteen-pounders." "Rasim, a Syrian officer, formerly a battery commander in the Turkish Army, was fighting these two guns; and he made a great demonstration with them. They...
Strelets need congratulating on the 4 heavy WW1 Allied artillery pieces. Enclosed my example of A001 -the 6" artillery piece. The latter picture contains a few hybids! Its a pity the leading compaies do not spring suprises like this range. Lets hope the future French tanks are reasonable as th...
Hi, friends!?I'm making a models of the tanks WWI Mark V in 1/35 (Interus) and Mark IV 1/35 (Emhar)But I ran into a problem - all the trucks sets for these tanks 1/35 are very inaccurate. Trucks only slightly similar to the ones that I see on the pictures of real Mark.If you have tracks photos - send them to...
? The attached images might be of interest - the 1919 Christie 155mm GPF SPG. Like many Christie designs it was designed to run on wheels or tracks. Official trials recommended it should be produced for troop trials but the forces of conservatism in the US Army killed all SPG development off in 1922/23...
I believe there were 2(?) versions of this as a QF piece. The first of 1903 or 1904 the second of 1909. The later one is adopted & manufactured under licence by the Russians as a 122mm. The earlier was used by the Turks both in the Balkan Wars & WWI. Thanks to CharlieC am aware that the Turks manufac...
