So with the supply tank finished, the Mk.IV Male close to finished, the Mk.IV female progressing nicely and the A7V done it's time to start something else. Contrary to my post on RCD's thread about the warped track frames on Emhar's Tadpole, so long as they're held square while the whole assembly drie...
Excellent news - hopefully a 1914 version will follow before too long, but i'll definitely be getting a copy of this... http://www.roden.eu/HTML/731.htm

Got mine this morning, after a long wait, started converting them right away to 1918, fairly easy as they have an equipment set included, I will post photos when they are more complete. So far, so good.
This gun is at Glencorse Barracks, Penicuik outside Edinburgh. I think its nickname is 'The Archangel Gun'. I have not seen it myself but aim to soon. Looks like a 13cm Kanone. Any other ID?
HI, Just thought I would say hello, like quite a few modellers I am starting to build some of the 1:35 ww1 kits now available, beginning with the TAKOM mkiv male - AAAARRRGGHH! what a pain!! caused mainly by the CAD instruction's not showing how parts appear when fitted-perhaps they (TAKOM) should l...
A mention was made in another thread about MK1 tanks and track grousers, rather than add to that thread I thought I would post this here. Now strictly speaking Grousers were not used until the MKIIs and if anyone had told me they were fitted to the MK1 tanks, I would have disagreed with them. Only thing is...
Can anyone help with some info please :) There are a couple of photos of tank 261 on the web (copies attached) which show the general design of the tower mounted on the tank, but I can't find any detail on the top where I assume the airship or it's mooring line would be attached to. Can anyone help on this? In...
Building and really enjoying Takom's Mk I female, which in my opinion is an excellent kit, i've noticed an oddity regarding the MG armour covers and I haven't been successful in finding any pics or info so I try this great forum. For some reason Takom have moulded the MG covers hollow on the underside wi...
Hi, I currently have a 1:72 scale model of the Hindenburg, I found reference to a model of this size in an ancient post on this forum.
If still active does anyone have any ideas where I may find people interested in buying it. Currently listed on eBay but being a very niche item I'm trying to list it where e...
While building Takom's mk 1 female I noticed that the armour covers for the mg's for some reason are hollowed on the underside. Unable to find any pics showing that part I was hoping anyone here have any info about that part. Should it be hollow like it is moulded and therefor needing to add the lower part...
Has anyone seen, or knows of, drawings of the US Tracked Steam tank? This was built in Boston in 1917-18 using Stanley steam technology by the US Army Corps of Engineers. It looked something like an obese version of a British rhomboid tank. Regards, Charlie

Been building WWI models since I first found the Airfix Mark I in the late 1950's. Recently finished the Schneider and St. Chamond (photos attached) in 1/35 and posted photos on Track Link. Will be using this site much more due to its focus on what I'm interested in. Just received the Takom Mark I Fem...

Hello everyone! This is my first post on Landships, but I read forum from time to time during couple months. Well, about subject. I have seen this image some time ago and found it interesting. Then I started to search another photos of that gun. And finally found it. Here it is — http://www.panoramio.c...
Hi mates. I´d like to build a Mark Iv with interior. I have the old Ehmar kit and I know it´s going to be a lot of work. As a new member of the site I first asked some advice to Rectalgia, and he told me to look for your help in this section. I seek infos first of all on the interior of the tank ( pics, links..), but o...
Some members of the forum asked me about the Takom St Chamond suspension improvements I made with some 3D printed parts showed in another thread. Takom make spring suspension solid. They work well for a OOTB model but they are no good for a mediun to high quality model. In this therad I would like to show...
One of the things I find tricky with 1:35 scale ww1 tanks is getting decals to form nicely over rivets, especially when you have several rivets close together. Any suggestions other than the usual softeners which really dont seem to do a lot.
