I have been trying to find the A7V and I've had a rough time of it. I live in the U.S. and most places seem to be out of it. Is it still in production?
I would like to know what is a good color for painting the 18 pounder ? I seen a photo of one in a museum and it was an olive color. Is this a good place to start?
Thank you for your help.
I am currently making an Emhar Mk IV Male tank and I was wanting to know if the rails are correct in profile? I know they are placed on the model with the inside of the rail facing out instead of in and the ends that connect to the horns needs to be modified.I have seen the walk around photos and in profile they...

Not having a great deal of luck with model companies?recently......! Back in November I sent an order off to Matador Models for the first time, wasn't too surprised when I didn't hear anything for a month, but then a couple of months went by with nothing heard, so sent a letter asking if they'd received...

Trying to collect and collate more info on Turkish motorised transport. This did exist (accounts of the trapping and destruction of the Turkish 7th Army by the RAF and AFC describe columns of lorries being straffed and bombed). It seems that Turkey purchased numbers of the Praga R lorry (also used in...
I'm looking for any information regarding the French 505e RAS such as organization, serial numbers for the tanks, etc.? I know they supported the AEF in the Argonne, but I can't find much information about them. Thanks, Warren
Hello,on my Cambrai-dio there is going to be a sunken road to the village of Ribecourt. This road is crossing a German trench,the bottom of the road is the same height as the trench-bottom. How would this look like,I have no drawings or pictures of such a situation. Many thanks in advance, Hans.
Good morning, This is my first post so excuse me if the topic has been done to death and?I can't find it due to my inability to search this site. What does anyone have regarding the TAON of the Russian Army in WW1 please. The acronym translates as the 'Artillery of Special Purpose' dating from 1917. Basic...
Below are a photo of the 155mm version (from Brussels) that is supposed to be close in view to the 120mm (if much less stable & successful). Plus a Gun Drawing of the 120mm (supposedly) Plus a Photo of the 120mm described as 1890 Baquet. I can't reconcile these images? I am interested as the Serbs are...

Hi, I recently purchased Emhar's 1/35th scale Mk IV Male. Normally I model WWII onwards but have always hankered after having a WWI tank. Anyway, having purchased the beast I then saw Terry Ashley's review in PMMS and noted his comments about the Sponsons - how the kit ones are at right angles to the hul...

I'm looking to broaden my knowledge on WW1 armoured cars - can anyone reccomend some? I've got 'War Cars' by David Fletcher, and looking to buy 'Steel chariots in the desert' by a Rolls Royce a/c driver in the desert, but they're the only ones I know of
Hi all, can anyone give any kind of info about this french trench mortar? I would like to model this gun on 1/35 but have only two old b/w pics and need more than this for detailing.
I think the first picture could well be of the mysterious Berthier machine-gun that we tried to fathom out some time ago. These are Belgian Grenadiers, and they must be pre-War since they're wering bearskins. The gun on the cart looks like the Berthier that can be seen towards the bottom of this page ht...
