After reading a misinformed comment on a website recently, I thought it might be amusing to offer some examples of people not knowing what they're talking about but being prepared to speak authoritatively. These are all genuine, honest. On an American website, discussing picture of the battlefie...
Greetings, Was wondering if anyone had any info as to the colors of the guns used by the above combatants. Have searched high and low with no results. Thanks, Paul
Does anyone have any good sources for information on Cunningham tanks? Most sources don't list all of their vehicles. I have slowly been building up a vague understanding of Cunningham and I've come to the conclusion that several of their tanks were actually quite advanced, although completely ov...

A history of Hickman County in the above state says "German tank captured in World War I brought in county mid twentys was used to pull graders and other road equipment" No I don't believe that this was an A7V but could it have been one of the Uberlandwagens? Or perhaps one of those big tracked...
Hello, I've come across several references to there being two Rolls Royce-based armoured cars on the freighter Thistlegorm which was sunk on October 6th 1941 off the Sinai coast by a German bomber flying out of Crete.? The ship and its cargo are still there and are a well-known dive site.? There are un...
Hello, I am a modeller of World War One 1:35 armour. Recently, I found on the internet?about the makes Armo Models and?Major Models, both sold?by?Lou Stener?(Armour Models from England). The Major Models are also branded as CK Models and are also sold directly by Vyacheslav Ryzhenkov from Penza, R...
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...
"German experimental halftrack tank of 1928 (on the caterpillars). (Shpil'berger)." Got that off of a Russian website, translated using Babelfish. Wha...

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?
