Small Scale Military Headquarters

Hey there, check this out!!! Its a little off scale, Id say around 1/7 maybe, Its made mostly out of Poplar wood, sheet metal, and hard cardstock. It measures about 36 inches long, and about 15 inches tall. Tell me what ya'll think!!!

Did you make that??

It looks pretty good! You need to find one or two of the old 1:6 scale GI Joe "WWI Doughboy" figures, or perhaps any other WWI figure made by Dragon or some other company to go alon with it

Ya, I made it, and it took a pretty long time but I do have 1 of the Doughboy figures, and I just scored a few german, and french WWI figures in 1/6 from my brothers old collection, so ive got myself a little army so far

Nice job. PM sent.

I saw a similar WWI tank in one of the 1/6 forums and it was setup in a diorama with WWI 1/6 scale figures....it looked really good and the figures were even coztumized as WWI tank crewmen.

There was a 1/6th Mk IV or sale on e-bay a year or so ago. They had it painted in a captured German camo paint scheme. The over all was good but it looked way off scale . I can't remember what it ended up selling for .

hey 75th Ranger, do you by any chance know the forum you found it on?? Im curious to see it!

here is the link to the OSW forum where the post was made and both your tank and the one in the OSW forum look really good.

enjoy the pics.

Wow, that is awesome!!!

All I need is one of those WWI tanks for my WWI figures!

can you make more or blueprints for one?

keep me posted.

I need to supply my WWI trenches.

Alright, with some help from Pickelhaulbe, I was able to add on the larger sponsons, and also add on ridges to the treads, I hope ya'll like, and I just wanted to let you all know Im working on a 1/6 FT-17, and all I have to do is make the upper half of the tank, and then paint, so ill keep ya'll posted,

Looks nice!!! even better now that it is a diorama.

so when are you sending me the blueprints for this baby?...

ps: i saw that the cannons are facing towards the rear of the tank, any particular reason why?

OH GOSH!! I just noticed that!!!! CRAP oh well, but anyways yes, let me work up some blueprints, and Ill put them on a file, and if you PM me your email address I can shoot them over too you once it is conveniant if thats fine, and Im glad you like it!!!!!!
