Gentleman? While going through a site, MarkV provided us, (By the way MarkV thanks for the sites). I came across some fanciful drawings of French Armoured Vehicles from 1908. I thought they might interest those of you into rather strange improvised, and dreamed up vehicles. By the way, how about tha...

Best regards, Tom...
I recall that Vilkata was particularly interested in Walter Christie's various designs, including his Flying Tank. He (and anyone else interested!) will, I am sure, like to know that the whole of an article on the Flying Tank from a July 1932 Modern Mechanics can be viewed here: [url]http://blog.m...
Howdy, Here's a collection of online photos site links.? Many individual sites mentioned have already been posted here, but there are a number of new ones as well. PhotoGraphicLibraries Most of the sites are free.? Some require sign-up.? I havn't gone through them all by any means, but the followin...
Does anyone know of a kit to convert an Emhar MK IV female to male in 1:35 scale? Or if you have any spare male sponsons and guns from say a Hermaphrodite kit, let me know. I've found a kit in 1:72 scale but not 1:35.
Does anyone know if there is a kit to convert an Emhar MK IV female to male? Or if anyone has some extra male sponsons and guns 1:35 scale? -- Edited by Leonardcastro at 00:27, 2007-07-17
I stumbled on an estonian site with lots of pictures, some of them I think have been posted before (the Mk.V's) but the armored car and the ft-17 photos I believe are new
Glad to have found this forum, have a question hopefully somebody can help me with. A recent visit to the Patton Museum has inspired me to build a Mk.V* in 1/35th. My problem is from my research the only Mk.V* kit I know of is the Panzershop Emhar Mk. V conversion, but the kit appears to be out of production...
I stumbled across a fantastic site that had illustrations of all the Belgian officers' kepis with their rank insigna. Like an idiot I?didn't bother?to bookmark it, thinking I'd remember how I got to it. Now I can't find it to save my life. Been looking for hours. Does it ring a bell with anyone?
I understand that Bovington doesn't have works drawings ("blueprints")?for the male sponsons for either the Mark I/II or the Mark IV/V/V*. Does anyone have a set of good scale drawings for either or both versions?
I find that when I go to the Forum title page, the list of topics isn't up-to-date. For instance, there's been a lot on the Mack truck lately but it doesn't appear as a recent post on this page. If I go to a thread and then select Recent Posts?a completely different list comes up. Is it me?
Reading "A Company of Tanks", I found a reference to "swinging" the tank to adjust it's compass. Would I be right in assuming that this is the same or similar to the way boats adjust their compasses?
I downloaded the plans of the Christie M1919 tank,and I'll scratchbuild it;can someone help me with the paint scheme and/or markings?in wich army it served?. Regards.
Just wondered if anyone here had built the RPM 1/72 Mack Bulldog HC3 early? It appears to be a British variant, judging by the driver and the gun and limber being towed, does the kit include British decals, or need any?

He?led the company in their?costly attack at 1st Bullecourt in April 1917, and subsequently was in action with them at 2nd Bullecourt, 3rd Ypres and C...
On quite a few surviving heavy tanks, the internal WD numbers, found above the secondary gear position on Mk IV and earlier or above the forward ammunition storage on Mk V's (and possibly V*'s), are missing. I imagine a few were souvenired by the Germans when they captured tanks but I wonder also if?re...
Hallo Peter, I`m preparing a long article about MG?s -including pictures. Is it possible to do with ADOBE/PdF or are there other rules whe all shall know. Couldn`t get any concrete information on board.
Dear Friends, Contributors and Webmasters; I thank you all for you did a wonderful job to present the equipment of the great war to the public. However, I'm a little disappointed for not seeing a section on the Ottoman artillery. I hope you shall add a section about the third (altough somewhat weak) gr...

Hello Everyone
I am looking for information and pictures of the German 8.8 cm L/30 quick-firing C/89: I am especially interested in the land batteries.
The breech is of a so-called spherical wedge type (Rundkeilverschluss in German). The wedge that closes the breech is ac...
Does anybody know anything about this howitzers?
According from Das Ehrenbuch der Deutschen Schweren Artillerie and Der Weltkrieg 1914-1918 at the outbreak of WW1 in German fortreess there were 32 Versuchs-Haubitzen 99, but I was not able to know anything about them.
Thanks
I am scratch building Koeningsberg gun used in East Africa. I have seen several remaining guns, but they seams to be different one from the other. Is there anyone who knows more about those ex naval guns?
Thanks

anybody know what this is? on the breech is says Krupp 1898. actually I have quite a few photos I can't identify in my folder called 'Artillery'. Many are from the Canadian War Museum. Its got an enormous collection of Great War Era guns, but they are all just piled on top of each other!
I got these photos from a Frenchman, Fabien Clesse, who found it on a WW1 Battlefield, and he want's help to identify what it is. He says it's "certainly a piece of artillery gun". My guess is that's it's perhaps an earth spade (don't know if that's the correct term) that sits at the end of the t...
