That Schneider tank looks like something a Warhammer modeller would build - very advanced looking for 1917.  You've opened my eyes to the huge variety of vehicles in that period.  And I used to think the Great War was boring!!!

Hi Zak,

Like Wizz says you have opened our eyes to WWI and all its treasures.
Your dedication to the era has to be commended. We could all learn a lot from you!

I hope my next is always better

More progress on the Renault, it is a really nice kit from MENG. If all their kits are as good as this, great.
The tracks simply push together.
Even the etched brass fits.
