What's permitted here.
« on: October 27, 2015, 05:44:16 PM »
With the onset of a lot of new WW1 armour kits especially tanks and guns, this board is dedicated to the armour that was used during WW1, tanks, guns vehicles etc. You can post pictures of your completed models or you can start a topic with a full build log of your kit, this board is strictly for WW1. I will also include WW1 ships in this board, photos of your completed ship or a ship build log will all be welcome. Also included here are figures associated with WW1 but not necessarily aviation figures. Please direct any questions to the forum administrator.

Very cool, Des! Thank you. I can't wait to see what our forumites have been up to in the world of heavy land locked vehicles. :)

Des! Thank you very much!
I just bought a Takom's Krupp 21 cm Mörser 10/16 and I'm planning a diorama (involving Italian infantry conquering a gun emplacement  ;)) and you come up with this wonderful news!
Are you a mind reader as well?  ::)
As we say it is like cheese over maccaroni!!! just perfect!

Now that's good news, Des. Only this morning I was at the model shop in Limoges admiring the Takom Krupp 21 Morser 10/16. It looks a beauty.

Best wishes
Nigel

Thank you, and I'm looking forward to seeing the builds. Hmmm, I happen to have a Meng French FT-17 kit hiding around here somewhere  :o

What I was thinking is that this very site is becoming THE site for all WWI modelling, not 'just' aircraft.
And this is very amazing considering that is all due to the love, hard work and dedication of just one person! So a BIG thank you Des!  :D

Thank you for doing this Des. One thing I liked about the old WWI Modeling List was that it was for WWI, not just a/c, although just about every one there built a/c. However, almost everyone there also had WWI interests other than a/c. As much as WWI has grown of late, we're still a small niche. I'd hate to exclude anyone because their favorite subject on the bench didn't fly.

I'm no shippie by any means, but I'd welcome a ship maritime section as well as I love to see what the shippies are doing!

Just my two kopecks,

Warren

Many thanks for adding this board Des. WW1 armour is growing in popularity with mainstream plastic manufacturers such as Takom, Master Box and ICM producing a tempting array of tanks and WW1 figures.

Adding this board to the Forum further cements the Forum's reputation as THE go-to place for all WW1 modelling subjects,.

Ships have now been added to this board, please confine all ship models to WW1 only.

Ships? Wow, Des! I predict this forum is going to become the preeminent site for all things WW1! :)
