I really enjoyed this build, as it's something from the norm for me. I did it as a "What-If", as I thought it looked a bit plain as is. Anyway on to the pics.

Great job. What a neat looking beast. No idea what makes it a whif. Did they even get into service ? Be nice to see another tank beside it, get a feel for the scale.

Good to see one built, nice work. :thumbsup:
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

It is good to see one built as Mossie says, lovely build  :thumbsup:

It never entered service. I've done it as deployed by the Poles. I'll see if I can find something to put alongside it.
