Hi All, This is my first post on the forum. I had mostly browsed in the past. This site has been a great resource. I just realized we didn't post our kickstarter last month. It is a 1/56 (28mm) scale model kickstarter for WWI tanks. You can view the kickstarter here. Our company is called Trenchwor...
I would like to build some horsedrawn WWI wagons, field kitchens ect in 1/76 scale to add to the ones by Hat. Imex has a number off old west/ACW wagons that could be converted. Does anyone have any information or advise on this? Figures that I am interested in 1/32 scale of the major figures of WW I. in 1/76...
Can anyone help me identify these Cartridge cases I acquired in Belgium? The one dated 1916 is about 4" wide at the base and 12" tall. the one dated 1917 is about 3.5" at the base and 11" tall. Thanks! -- Edited by tjcasey14 on Monday 4th of August 2014 10:58:43 PM
I really felt inspired yesterday… new sculptures designed, moulded and made in a day.I really felt inspired yesterday having released the first batch of my 1914/15 French Army miniatures earlier this week. It was one of those days when inspired by some of my photo’s of French infantry of the early wa...
Hello All, I have just taken ownership of a 1914 Krupp 77 mm Feild gun. Missing is the breech block, elevation gearing (screw damaged) & deflector on left hand side of breech with it's block (has 4 bolt holes)
Here are the sprue shots and instruction scans from PMMS. Takom seem to have gone a bit bonkers breaking the 'Boids down to every last plate and panel, so checking 'square' during construction will be even more essential than with the old Emhar. A tip I have seen is to glue 1x1 or 1x2 Lego bricks inside r...
It sure looks great, especially after having tried to build with those awful old Emhar kits. And I feel the tank itself would suit the idea of "World War One destroying the old order in Europe" most admirably-when you think about it, it actually looks like a grotesque parody of modern abst...
Stumbled on this. Another view of one of the Mk Vs in Berlin, 1945. Don't remember seeing this shot before. The building in the background is the Altes Museum (Old Museum), so the cathedral would be to the right of it. Sorry if not new, as ever. -- Edited by James H on Thursday 3rd of July 2014 09:22:44 AM...
Gentlemen , Was it possible to mount a grenade (roof) shield (like on the Mark I) on a Mark IV because the unditching beam rails are in the way..... I've seen a drawing of a mark IV equipped with one but no actual photographs greetz Ronald -- Edited by SMK on Monday 4th of August 2014 06:44:33 PM
Built pretty much straight out of the box, the only improvements were to blank off the vents as I didn't like the see through effect, filled in the odd shape gun sighting hole with plastic card and re-cut the correct "T" shape and added some shims top and bottom to the gun shield as it was very g...
Some of the earlier threads on PaperModelers.com got me looking at the Gun Carrier again. The drawings I found on the 'net didn't seem to fit the overall dimensions posted elsewhere. I found a couple of good side views, scaled them to the published dimensions and made some drawings. Then the simple so...
In case you haven't seen the article, the Royal British Legion, in association with Ancestry.com, has started the following site:www.everymanremembered.org. to commemorate those Empire military force members killed in WWI. The site allows the person's story to be told by you and permits the...
In the axis history forum's WW I section there is a posting that the Germans have put a lot of WW I documents, Photos and film clips online see: http://ersterweltkrieg.bendesarchive.de I hope this is interst

I thought I knew most of them, but I don't recall this one. The first 4' 30", obviously a feature film but not one I recognise. It seems to be Somme-themed. Maybe an extract from the 1927 film? The rest of it is a mish-mash of genuine Great War stuff. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhnsRw4eLa8
