Due out next year, 2026. Features 1:1 replica Mark IV, Fray Bentos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxE3WDFWfqk https://www.facebook.com/LandshipMovie Seems to be a follow-up to this, from 2013: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUblsnPHkEg
Not sure if this is the right sub-forum, please let me know if I should move it to another... I am doing some deep research on how the RAF cooperated with the Tank Corps to attack and supress German anti-tank guns during 1918. One factor that is mentioned across multiple primary sources (Leigh Mallory'...
Gee ! no new posts since December 2023 ! Hi guys, been a looong time since I posted too. Been long interested in Lancelot DeMole's tank & have drawn some profiles. With so many weird WW2 & fantasy tank designs being produced by kit manufacturers, why is there no DeMole tank kit ? Would love one...
This has caused a lot of puzzlement over the years. Lots of photos of the female Mk V with the amoeba camo, both in Smolensk and in Berlin, but no explanation of the origins. This might be a clue. I haven't seen it before. I don't know the location - maybe Smolensk cathedral in the background - but the impor...
I stumbled across this, and thought it was amazing news, or perhaps a hallucination. Omaka airfield, New Zealand, with A7V in attendance. Have Bob Grundy, Max Hundleby, and Schnuck made the long trip to the Antipodes, following in the wake of Mephisto? No, they haven't. "A full size rendition built...
A Great War doco on tv. Very brief shot of what appears to be Colt MG being fired by German crew. Any explanation? I read somewhere that some Colts were captured and pressed into service in WWII, but this chap's helmet is WWI, I think.
Hello everyone, Do we have any members that frequently visit Bovington? I'm looking for somebody with a DSLR camera that would be willing spend an hour or so taking pictures of the Mk. V** in their collection. I'd be willing to compensate you for your time.
This may be a long shot but I am looking for a drawing of the 600mm gauge Deutz Benzollok that was ubiqiuitous on the German Trench Railways. I have lots of good photos of several different locos. And also drawings of the Ruston Proctor loco that was based on a Deutz. The oil engine was originally develop...
Hello, I almost finished the GB modelli Obice da 305mm and I still have an interogation. I want to represent some shells near the gun but which colour are they ? Anybody has an idea ? Thank you in advance
The gun is a 30.5cm Beta i.R which weighed in at 24.5tons emplaced - add a couple of tons for the wheels under the end of the trail. Anyone identify the tractors? Charlie
In Missing-Lynx.com WW I section there is a recent picture of the Mark V tank in Kharkiv. It looks okay after nearly 3 years of war. Does anyone know the serial number or any other info on it?
I haven't done much on Landships II for some time. I think it's time to do stuff on the website. As a first step I'd like to separate the artillery articles from the mortars. There's two reasons: 1. The menus on artillery are getting very crowded 2. In terms of numbers and the effect on the conflict morta...
Hello, Is anyone familiar with Tankette Magazine? I am wondering if somebody has a list of issues that feature WW1 topics, such as the issue with the article about Little Willie that contains Dick Harley's drawings (I believe he has since written an article about Mother as well)? I been trying to s...
I'm starting to think that the US Archives are a treasure trove of information which has barely been exploited. For example the British 9.2inch howitzer was in service throughout WW1 and a number were built in the US. It was intended that the 9.2inch howitzer should become the US Army standard heavy...
The attached sketch was found in a text from 1922 on "l'Artillerie de Tranche" of the Mortier de 340T. We've recently had some interest in the Italian 400mm mortar (bombard). The sketch shows the projectile transport and charging of the 340T. It looks as if the French and Italians evolved rather sim...
Hello, Does anybody have good source of photos or information on the 3.7cm TAK anti-tank gun, the 3.7cm Fischer, the MG 18 TuF or the 20mm Becker rifle? Despite the fact there are surviving examples of all 4 I can find almost no information or photos. Thank you, Chase
Hey guys, Does anybody have any references or good photos of the modifications done to HMLS Excellent during WW2? I can't find any really good pictures of the AA gun installation that was added to the roof... although it appears to have replaced the original lookout tower completely. The tank was...
Hey guys, Does anybody have any period photos or diagrams of a Mk. IV tank showing the interior loaded with ammunition and gear? IIRC the Mk. IV females carried something like 13,000 rounds of ammo in Lewis drums... which is an enormous number of drums. The stowage locations for mg ammo in both mal...
Hello, Has anybody ever located any archive material related to any of Lt.Col. Johnson's experiments pre-dating the Medium Mark D? I'm interested in information about the he leaf-sprung, 30 mph Whippet or the Mk. V tank running "Snake Track". I've seen the following photos in a couple of places...
Well, I have recently gotten a copy of the book by Horst F. Plank titled "Die Waffen der Koeniglich Bayerischen Armee 1806-1918 - Band IV - Die Artillerie". It is an interesting collection of technical drawings and photos that have largely seen in other works on this subject. It does mention number...
Here we are
I dedicate myself to another splendid Kit from GB Modelli....this time 1GM.
This is the 400 mm Bombarda placed in battery on the Italian front in 1917... accompanied by its bomb and related trolleys for transport/loading
Thurs
PS assembly was easy, the most challenging part was det...
Are there any blueprints of the FT available anywhere? I have found some photographs of what looks like a manual with some technical drawings. Do the Renault archives have anything (anybody ever asked/looked?) I'm working on the Takom 1/16 kit at the moment, and looking for any info I can find. Paid...
A friend of mine has made a beautiful 1/32 model of this gun using 3D printing and has asked me to paint it There’s numerous photos on the AWM web site of the gun after capture and many of the gun later which I assume has been repainted. Looking at the period photos I’m thinking there were five colors used...
Hello! Recently I started to dig in into theme of Mk V in WW2. I would be grateful for any information or photos. It return I can share all I've found this far
