Does anyone know how I can get hold of Hubert Cance's drawings, in particular those of Crompton's Emplacement Destroyers? This is apparently a complete list of his drawings:
Which modelling colour (pref. Revell) comes close to the shade of Green the Russians painted their guns in in WW1? I've my 1/72 Putilov 02 ready for painting and believe the WW2 "4BO" shade is wrong for WW1. Thanks in advance, Pat
two WW1 subjects : french army cars up to 1918 16 pages , lot of pix including an autochrome , le 370 Filloux (8 pages) and an immediate post-war subject : White TBC armoured cars in "m?tropole"(6 pages) most interesting JCC
Does anyone know whether the rear port/starboard stowage boxes on the Mk. A were factory items, or were they 'aftermarket' add-ons? I'm scratchbuilding a set in 1:35 and was wondering whether they'd be in the same paint as the rest of the tank... TIA
I don't know if this is off topic or not but I just purchased the Osprey New Vanguard book No.170 Spanish Civil War Tanks by Steven J. Zaloga and illustrated by Tony Brown ISBN:978 1 84908 2938. While it contains a lot of pre W.W.II tanks it has a couple of French W.W.I tanks. Overall it is a good read so far a...
I was thinking of marking up my Dennis with New Zealand markings so that it would look a little like this: What colour is the fern leaf and what colour should the roundel be...
... he has put a good deal of time into a number of site projects that really deserve out attention.?? My personal favorite is below.?? Just do a search and you'll find his contribution a few lines down. Well done,? Unclean Creature,? well done.? Canon de 75 mod?le 1897
The previous thread reminded me of a topic I've been meaning to raise.... The Landships site has some articles on the licence built versions of the 75mm Krupp export guns but there isn't an article which brings the information on licence built and exported guns together. The Krupp 75mm gun was, argua...
Hi all, this is my latest build. It is the Renault FT by Hat. I have added improvements with strip stryene.rod,brass wire and Archer Surface Details. I still have a few more items to add and the tracks are not glued on yet.
I am searching for a photo and any history in connection with the above amoured car that has been identified as?deployed on the North West Frontier in 1936 with 8th Light Tank Company, Royal Tank Corps and was commanded by a Corporal Morton. I appreciate that this is post WW1 but am trying to establish w...
Here are the Mack AC pictures. They are a little darker then the model so I will need to work on lighting some more. I also have a photo of it loaded with a unfinished Hat Renault FT. The Mack needs some more weathering on it.
Looking for pictures of motorcycles I read that British dispatch riders were named 'Don R', according to a phonetic alphabet. 'Ack Emma' stands for a.m, Pip Emma for p.m, there was Tock Emma for trench mortar, O Pip for observation post etc. Today I think the so called Nato alphabet is in use, but does a...
Well it took about a year but I did finish a Great War model. My beautiful wife bought me the RPM kit of the Mack AC Bulldog typ EHT in 1/72 scale for Christmas 2009. I will post pictures as soon as I can. I am also working on the Hat Renault FT with the Berliet turret and 37mm cannon. I am using the Landships II R...
A very happy find. Unternehmen Michael, made in 1937. Features a replica Beutepanzer that performs heroically, albeit at implausibly high speeds, in the German 1918 offensive. A couple of British replicas also appear. It's a full-length feature, so if you don't want to watch all the way through, t...
Stumbled across this. Never heard of it before. Sounds a bit like Sergeant York, except that the hero is an American?boxer who rejects violence outside the ring. He gets called up, and, once in the trenches - guess what? Anyway, the point is that this still shows an FT17 (probably an M1917) so there mus...
Ladies and Gentlemen! Here are couple of photos of my tanks: 1. Whippet "Sphinx" of the General Denikin's Southern army, together with the Mk V n:0 9186. Mk V is completely scratch built. 2. Renault FT of the General Judenitsh's Northwestern army in Tallinn. This is old Matchbox. 3. Mediu...
