Ok ok, due to popular demand, here is a collection of all the superheavy wwII vehicles I have finished:

Image

From left:
P.1000 Rattle (Germany)
Maus (Germany)
E-100 Tigermaus (Germany)
Karl-Gerat (Germany)
FCM F1 (France)
Char 2C (France)
T29 (US)
T-28 (US)
Tortoise (UK)
TOG2 (UK)

The Rattle only looks small because all the other designes are really big too :) .
There are no soviet designs because I have either posted them already or I haven't drawn them yet.
I will do an updated version of this in a while.

I have wanted to do the P1500 but I haven't been able to find any useful side or line drawings. Also, I can't find any two sources that actually agree on what it was supposed to look like (apart from the fact that its BIG).

I got some news.

The E-100 is wrong, she is 10.27 meter long (Hull). That means she has 7 cm longer hull then from the Maus.
But also lower and wider...
She also able to carry 3 different types of turrets.

Plus did you use the 11 inch tripple turret from the parts sheet?
Because that isnt the one they would use. They designed a new turret. Called Kust repals 11 inch.
Wich is a little bit higher then original but less wide, and shorter.
In other words, more Stumpy :lol:

I got the turret for the Rattle from the part sheet so that I would have the gun right. I modified it so that it would fit the proper dimensions that are specified for the Rattle (ie higher and shorter) so I think its proper.

For the E100, I have only found sources that show it carrying two turrets. Your right though, they designed three different ones but I can't find good line drawings of the other two that I haven't posted (If you know of any please tell me!!).
As for the length, I'll look at it. Your probably right again but I want to check to see if the error is in my source drawing or if it was me. I'll update the drawing regardless (just looking at it now I can tell your right about the length issue).
Thanks for bringing this up. If anyone finds anything wrong with any other vehicles let me know.
Errors of 1 or 2 pixels are sometimes intentional on my part so that I can fit in all the road wheels or other details because of the limitations of using MS paint.
