Re: World War II Armored Fighting Vehicles
Very nice! I know it's now of the WWII era, but could you do a Merkava too? Merkava is an awesome tank.
You can call me Andy.

Re: World War II Armored Fighting Vehicles
Oh man, the E-100 and Maus come out great (not much detail to start with). I even did the Rattle and its MASSIVE. I used the 11inch turret from the gun part sheet and it looks good. Germany will come after the UK since I haven't finished organizing and naming it yetMitcheLL300 wrote:I am curious how the E-100 and the Maus will look like in this scale

Re: World War II Armored Fighting Vehicles
few things: I'd like to see the Churchill VIII AVRE, the bobbing tank (which might be US, I don't know on which chassis that one was based) and .... the DD is based around an sherman, IIRC, so isn't that an US tank? but it is possible there was an valentine version I have never heard of
after that we have the british 'Hobart's Funnies' complete, IIRC.
btw, very nice work, and after this I can't wait to draw an ship with these on deck

I ask of you to prove me wrong. Not say I am wrong, but prove it, because then I will have learned something new.

Re: World War II Armored Fighting Vehicles
I'm planning on doing the AVRE in the Assault Tank category along with the other "funnies". That said, I haven't finished them all yet so I may move on to another country before I post them all. As for the DD tank, the Sherman DD was based off the Valentine (I believe) so it works having them separate. I have also done the Tetrarch DD light tank which I will post next with all the British light tanks when I finish naming all of them.acelanceloet wrote:few things: I'd like to see the Churchill VIII AVRE, the bobbing tank (which might be US, I don't know on which chassis that one was based) and .... the DD is based around an sherman, IIRC, so isn't that an US tank? but it is possible there was an valentine version I have never heard of

I've also done the Sherman DD with the canvass up and down just to give a comparison but I couldn't do it with the other DD tanks since there are no sources that show it up.

Re: World War II Armored Fighting Vehicles
Ok finished the British light tanks:
From the left:
Vickers Mk II
Carden Loyd Amphibious Tanks (not the tankette)
Vickers 6 Ton
Tetrarch DD (Swimming tank)
Tetrarch
Harry Hoplins (basically an update of the Tetrarch)
Next up, the Universal Tank:
From the Left:
Centurion Mk1 (17pdr with a 20mm secondary)
Centurion Mk 3 (20 Pdr)
Now, I have a little conundrum. I started doing all of these WWII vehicles after I saw someone post a page with a bunch of military vehicles and stuff (mostly trucks and Cold War tanks) and I decided to do the same thing only with WWII.
I used the hull from their Centurion (with a 105mm gun) they put up to do my two variants so I'm wondering, should I cite them for that on this drawing?
Here is the comparison:
The original that I didn't draw is highlighted.
They didn't have their name on the sheet anyway so I'm not even sure who posted it.

Re: World War II Armored Fighting Vehicles
Very well done and an incredible work. It's incredible how the small vehicles looks in SB. Will you include the Zรผndapp and BMW motorbikes and sidecars?
Congratulations.
Congratulations.
