Thanks for the comments guys!  And thanks Narsec for the nomination. 

A few more pictures in natural sunlight.  The flash yesterday caused too much glare.

With that windmill in front of it, you could have called it the Don Quixote.....

Nice one, dude! :thumbsup:

Do we have a name for her, yet? I'd suggest something French, because, although I know you used an American BB, there is something very French about this design. The names Leviathan & Juggernaught leap to mind & are the same in both English & French (as is Invincible).

One point if I may: shouldn't it be leaving some fairly devastating tracks behind it on (in?) the landscape?

It does have pretty low ground pressure with those MONSTER tracks..........  ;)

I'm rather glad I'm not one of the gunners in those barbettes that are INSIDE the track sponsons though, they're totally un-sprung!

Yeah, I thought about making some tracks on the ground, I imagine there would be soem huge ruts- and a turn would really tear things up.  Maybe I'll give that a try.

Got to agree with that but, as sd89 says, a turn should really churn things up a bit.

I don't know about that, the overall size & mass of this beasty &, I'm pretty sure, rather slow ground speed should make for a fairly smooth ride, really.

I'd hate to see and try and fix a thrown track on that monster...
