Been having a trawl round CriticalPast.com Caterpillar tractors pull railroad flatcars loaded with 42-cm guns. Not railway cars at all; look like captured German guns on their carriages. Clearly in France, but not clear if before Armistice or clearing up afterwards Nice shot of Holt machine in US...
Towards the end of the conflict the Australian Corps are recorded as receiving a number of Garford Box Cars. Does any member have or know of an image of this vehicle? Regards....Rod
In the absence of scaled drawings of many of the vehicles and much of the equipment we would like to see in model form, does anyone know of a suitable 3D drawings system which would enable me to extract information from photographs? Many potential subjects such as transport and armour were photograph...
I'm?looking for suitable?tanks to model, from A?Company of the Heavy Section Machine Gun Corps, or whatever they were called by the time A Company saw action. And there's the big gap in my knowledge!

Hi all ? At long last, I have finally got my hands on a Roseplane Drachen observation balloon! I've been trying to get one for ages, but the prices on ebay just scared me off. Eventually managed to get one from someone in Canada, and it came today. All I have to do now is build it of course... So if anyone has d...
Finished at last. Not very?content with snow on base; next time I'll airbrush it.? I'll put that bit down to experience. Figure's detail is great at the front, but the back lacks interest and consequently you can't do much with it (a poor workman blames his model). On the whole, reasonably happy...
