I have seen mention of a MkI experimentally fited up as a minesweeper. Apparently this consisted of suspending some form of electro magnet in front of the tank (presumably to lift mines out of the soil). One gathers that it didn't work. This predates the Mk V** fitted with mine exploding rollers. Does...
Latest previews on their WW1 Futures page seem to be Russian cavalry and German hussars (?)

Does anyone have info, review and/or photos of following Caesar kits?

Hello, I'm Pedro Grilo from Portugal and in my workbench I have two models in build process, the truck Mack Bulldog and the Renault FT17 both from RPM.
My idea is to put the FT17 in the Mack, but I wouldn't like to make them both american (too much olive green). My idea was to make them both french.

One firm with an interesting range of smallscale WW1 kits have been BK Modelcraft: among others they have sold kits of the Fahrpanzer, 25cm Minenwerfer, 21cm M?rser, field bakery, softskins etc. The problem was only, that BK Models have been VERY hard to get in touch with. They have withstood the tem...
Hello all!
This summer I plan to visit England. One major "target" is the War and Peace Show at Beltring in July. I have got several questions:
- Are there any WW I vehicles and/or reenactors at the Show? Do you know about vehicle collectors, clubs, associations etc. participating at earli...
As most of you guys probably know, I have (partly for so called family reasons) a bit of a soft spot for WW1 Austro-Hungarian Artillery.
And now, in a short space of time, we have been reached by the news that TWO new kits of Austro-Hungarian Artillery pieces will come out very soon.
The first is the 1...
Having failed to find any thing other than descriptions of the proposed Mk VIII* I decided to use the data available ( including the fact that sections were to be added both fore and aft of the centre)and have a shot at producing my own artists impression which I enclose.

Digging aroundrecently on the subject of wireless tanks I found the standard pictures of a Mk female converted to a wireless tank with an enormous pole aerial.

I was wondering if anyone knows what the structure on top of this Mk V male is. Is it possibly a wireless aerial? The picture is a screenshot from a Discovery channel DVD "Extreme Machines: Tanks".

Gentlemen,
I promised I would try and develop some accounts of the contingent conflicts on the 1914-18 main event. Ive done a first pass on the Estonian war(s). As its a bit long for a posting I've attached it as a PDF. I'll do more but only if any one is interesed. let me know.
The enclosed photo shows a parade of Latvian tanks (supposedly in the late 1930s). The tanks are one Mk V and two Medium Bs. Has any one an idea about how and when these reached Latvia? The Mk V could have been one of the tanks used to support the Estonians ( as some of these were passed to Latvia after the con...
As we all know, every now and then they dig up a new WWI tank from an old battlefield. I think this picture is a testament to how that could happen.
