World War 1

[Username_Taken]

I was just wondering, has anyone around here seen any WW1 MOCs around the web? If you have, it would be great if you could post a picture of it here.

Thanks in advance,

I'll be making modular WWI trench MOCs later on, when I have ordered some minifig parts in bulk.

some questions:

-To make a Pickelhaube, does anyone have ideas? I tried experimenting with the tropical hat and a 1*1 cone...

-Any idea how to make the french Adrian helmet? It looks a bit like a fire helmet...

BTW, thats a very nice mark tank. I think I've seen a moc of a russian armoured WWI car also on brickshelf...

YES! THATS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR! *y*

I needed a point of reference to start on some WWI MOCs, So thanks BigT! X-D

p.s. Does anyone else think that the new Henry Jones Sr. helmet will be a good WWI helmet?

Well Henry Jones Hat is the British Anglo-Zulu War cap they used.

Such as the battle of Rorke's Drift

But It could be used as say the WW1 British Africa Troops?

It was the forgotten battleground of WW1.

Most people say Trenchs...

Also your said BigT?

I swear I gave you the Link in MY post? :-D

Also you could use the Helmet with Chinstrap and Wide Brim as the Mark 1 helmet?

And also you could use Wide Brim Flat (Johnny Thunder Hat)?

Wacth My Boy Jack the WW1 Drama show.

You can get it on DVD.

And then the one you've already seen, by Pepik.

Hopefully this helps you some.

BTW, Stauder, that picture you posted is very neat.

soldiers:

english: pre 1915: officer kepi

after 1915: steel broad rim castle helmet

german: pre 1916: "sun" hat with 1*1 cone

after 1916: military helmet from brickforge

french: early WWI: blue kepi

after: ???

U.S.: same as english after 1915

uniforms:

english: dark tan uniforms

german: early war: dark grey uniforms/later war: dark tan/green like (more camo-like)

french: early war: blue with red trousers like in the franco-prussian wars/ later war: "dawn blue" a sort of sky-blue/light blue perhaps sand blue

U.S.: see english

do keep in mind certain officers kept their older headgear and perhaps uniform because they were proud of it later into the war.

weapons:

english: revolver

german: brickarms luger, brickarms steilhandgranate

u.S.: M1911 pistol (brickarms), perhaps also revolver
