In this special LC-TV episode, Dave shows you how to make scale sandbags simply and easily for your models and dioramas right after a tribute to the Battle of Verdun!
My Great Granduncle fought in Verdun in 1916 but was killed by an artillery shell in 1917 during the 2nd battle of the Aisne fighting for the French Army. He was a Private Second Class of the 99th Infantry Regiment.
i think your sand bags are the best I've seen of all the tutorials floating out there. Great technique and thanks for the advice on the "Sandbag making machine". I LOL'd :)
Hi, can you help us with the ww2 italian uniform? In particular the two version greygreen amd blueish green grey (i ve seen it specially at mvsn black shirt). Thank you very much :)
webbing is made from the straps, belt and ammunition pouches etc. normally it has a name. the british equivalent in WWI was called the 1908 pattern webbing. i wondered whether you know what the straps, belt and ammunition pouches are called for the french. also what a great way to make sandbags to scale i have never thought of making a mold to do it. also great video.
WWIIUK Okay, I now know what you are asking - the French did not use webbing, they used leather. The Y brace system is the M1892 pattern with the M1905 cartridge pouches (3 total), you also see the M1888 bayonet frog, M1892 haversack, and the 1-liter M1877 water bottle. Hope this helps!!
