If you want that vehicle 1/72 in styrene or resin kit form from Minairons, you might want to support this. Minairons usually produce their kits in more than one scale. The thread shows images of the currently available Raventhorpe (metal) and Ready to Roll (resin) kits, too. Regards, Pat

At first this may seem to be an easy question. But I still wonder. The Paris Gun's carriage was a railway gun design. Its components were transported by rail, but it had to be emplaced and assembled before firing. The gun did not fire directly from rails, but rather was mounted on a turntable. Also...
Hello all, I would like to know if anyone here can help me with understanding the suspension on the Schneider CA series tanks. The rear part makes some sense to me, but the front section leaves me baffled. Where are the springs? what supports the forward section? I have watched as many videos as I can bu...
Bachmann have just announced their new models for WW1 era narrow gauge in OO9, http://www.bachmann.co.uk/details.php?id=188 So many new r2r models being released in this scale, almost tempted to build a WW1 themed layout in this scale.
I have the Tamiya Mk IV on the way from HLJ. Total cost is $75 Cdn including Shipping. So much for the fears that it would cost well over $100 plus. Not a bad price since I see new Trumpeter JS-4 is going for around the same price. dave
Am I right in thinking that Mk.IV supply tanks had a hatch in the cab roof? If so does anyone have a decent picture of one or the dimensions? This is the only picture I can find showing (sort of) the cab roof. Thanks a lot Bernie
One is the HäT kit, but with two new turrets / guns and decals for the Spanish Civil War, made by Minairons. The other is an all-new tooling by First To Fight. Regards, Pat

Hello All, I'm back & starting on my 1/2 scale A7V. I have been reading all my books, but I wanted you, the forum to give your opinions as to the operation of our beloved 20. Which one seems to have had the least down time? who was in more combat than the rest, which A7v was the most effective overall? T...
Yesterday I started constructing the Master Box Mk 1 'Female' tank and I thought it might be of value to share some of my observations. The kit comprises some 52 grey plastic parts and includes items such as exhaust deflectors, head lamps and?the steel sheet protecting the tail?hydraulic gear (usua...
Hi fellows, after some time of absence I want to show you my new WW 1 diorama,which is nearly finished. The Thornycroft takes action with the pushing Tommys, I made especially for it. The scene plays during the retreat fights in Flanders fields in the year 1918. To build the dio it took about two weeks in...

Hi everyone! Fresh here. I have noticed for quite a while that many MK IV and V tanks have rails. Were they a field modification? Did crews ever take them off? Thanks!
