Earlier in the summer<\/a> we posted about a new range of 3D printed Great War vehicles in 28mm. It’s taken us a little longer than expected, but the first of them have reached the website.<\/p>\n

We’ve started with what is pretty much the iconic WWI tank, the British Mark IV<\/a>. This is the Male version armed with two 6pdrs and three Lewis machine guns. It’s accompanied by a destroyed version that has obviously had a close encounter with some German artillery.<\/p>\n

Our second model in this first batch is at the opposite end of the size scale. The Ford M1918 3-ton tank was developed by the US as an alternative to the French-built FT-17, and took a number of design features from the latter vehicle. It was turretless, and armed with a machine gun mounted in the bow. Only fifteen were built and, of these, only one made it to Europe before the Armistice.<\/p>\n
