Hello everyone
I was just going through some pictures in my collection, and found these 3 pictures of some drawings of the first British tank design used in combat according to the terrified German soldier's that drew them. These pictures are like the one in (The German A7V Tank by Hundleby &...
Hi
I am interested in any info on how the half track parformed and how good it was and wee did it actually fight?
as for the Keergese chassis were they used on any other viehcles?
I've seen pictures of this armored car before, but I didn't realise it was this widespread!
It is a presumption, but I suspect that if this vehicle was important enough to become an image on a postcard, it must have been fairly significant in the USA.
Does anyone have any information?
As f...

I've just got the book "The 1917 Spring Offensives" by Yves Buffeataut (Yves can be seen in the French "Militaria" magazine), which I think just recently been translated into English.
And it is a SUPER book. It tells the stories of the three Allied Spring Offensives that year: Arras, Vimy Ridge and...

Tim R.,
Now that we have plenty of WWI artillery and a limber from Emhar and HaT, I'm putting together a 6-horse team. Actual photos seem very rare, but am I correct in assuming that the Revell WWII German Artillery horse team would be suitable for conversion?
Info about sources of photos of...
Hello everyone
Here is a new one for you, I am looking for some information on the French Perinelle-Dumay tank project of 1918, some sources say it was a project of 1933, this is as far as I know not true, The project was started in 1918 as the French answer to the K-Wagen, and the Flying Elephant p...
I am very joy to find this board and spoke to Tim Rigsby. I am hoping that some here have suggestions to help with this matter. I have a 13mm Maschinengewhr Tank und Flieger (MG18 TuF) which I have made to function (no worries please as it is fully legal) but it feeds very poorly with stops every 3-5 rounds....
I have an interesting problem here. I have been in contact with H?T reagarding them doing another WW1 Armourfast Plastic AFV kit. (Right now I'm painting a test shot of their new American WW1 Infantry.)
I don't know if you are familiar with the Armourfast concept. Personally I like it: the Armourfa...
Now, the Mendelejev and the Tsar tank are certainly good mind-candy, but were there any SERIOUS russian tank designs of WWI?
Yep!
The "Vezdekhod" was a very light pedrail tank, that was actually built in prototype form and worked great, but it was never put into production.
A pedrail is...

Tim, that Boirault mostrosity has to be the most ludicrous machine ever devised - it even knocks the Lebedenko into a cocked hat! Great article, it's good to see such obscure insanity remembered!

Hi guys!
As you might have guessed from the 'topic' line, I'd like any input on the Austro-Daimler Armoured Car of 1904, please. For such an historically significant vehicle, there's a surprising lack of information. Of the very few photos on t'internet, most are taken from more or less the...
This in regard of WW1 Military Modelling. As I see it is clearly a part of the Modelling Hobby that is gathering momentum: signs of this are the fact that more and more kits are coming, publications are not as rare as before, and that many aftermarket parts and sets are appearing. Still it is a minority se...

I have been emailing Obscurata a lot recently, and he has been telling me about an obscure Russian book he used to own, that delved into the history of USA armor in Nicaragua during the 1927-1933 'Constitutionalist War', in which a USA backed government, and US Marines, fought against Nicaraguan gue...
