The Mk.VIII was designed jointly by the UK & US, with French input, for the great offensive to finally crush the Germans in 1919. Events of November 1918 changed this - plans for mass production were scrapped- and only 5 were made in the UK. Around 100 were produced in the US & they served until 1932 in their heavy tank battalion.

Not many models - the only one I could find was https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/19555463...nNhZJRbDXY399g675FQzasjpKP|tkp:Bk9SR7q01Ir5YQ
I found the 3D files for the Mk.VIII on the Cults website, by MATTOSILVER, and cost me 9.07 Euros

There are some horrific files, with the model in one piece, but there are other folders with the bits in printable chunks. This is no tiddler, in 1/35 it's 300mm long & 100+ wide. I've been steadily printing bits - so far, I think it's around 48 hours printing time...................
I'll put up pictures of the bits tomorrow, before clean up. There are still a few bits that I haven't printed yet, the really delicate parts ( rails on the top of the tank ), but those are really final assembly bits!
