I pulled down a picture of them from the site.They are visible on Google - Street View: 90 Oneida St Cohoes, NY They a...
Mentioned in passing by Malmassari, but no further details: 25 novembre, 1915: Proposition de voiture blind? du capitaine De Poix. Don't know if it was wheeled, tracked, or another type altogether. Ring a bell?
Following on from the de Poix article, I mentioned a while back that the tracks on what we now know to be the de Poix bore quite a resemblance to the Diplock Chaintracks of 1911 and 1911/12. Couple of pics below. Hope there is agreement. What I also came across is what might be old, but I don't remember seei...
I've just got my first resin kit (not, unfortunately, a "Landship", actually an Admiralty S-class TBD), and a lot of the bits are on a sort of wafer of resin. What is the best way of removing them from it, please?
Hello, It has been sometime since I have posted anything here. Holidays and then the flu (first time I've ever had it) have kept me away from doing any modeling... This is a 1/32nd scale JMD Minenwerfer. Normal 1/32nd is 54mm but this now defunct brand actually scaled out to be around 60mm. As you c...
I'm sorry, that I'm starting my "career" on this forum with the "help request" type of topic, but I'm doing a favour to my old colleague. In the collection of photos gathered by my friend there is an unique group of photos, taken near Cambrai after the battle of 1917. Amongst the...

Can't scan it just at the mo, but have found a photo of an early Saint-Chamond with what looks like a sapling or young tree laid lengthways on top, one end resting on the central cupola and the other, presumably, on something to keep it horizontal. Some smaller bits of tree are propped against it, slopin...

After a long time I started modelling again. Sorry for not posting lately,I visited the forum once and a while,though My Cambrai-dio is far from ready,but will try to post some pics. To you all a very good 2015!
Have purchased some Marklin "Old-Timer" trucks in 1:32 scale for conversions to WW1 LKWs and was wondering what color they should be painted. My original intention was to paint them medium gray, but saw an image of a WW1 Horsch that was painted medium to dark green. Any suggestions? Bo...
Hi,I am building a British artillery gun limber towing an 18pdr in 28mm produced by Wargames Foundry. Given the rough treatment towed guns seemed to undergo, from footage I have seen, I just wondered if the gun sight would have been removed during transit?
