Is it you that owns a Sherman from some fantasy game or something?
Nâh. I’m the builder of the zombie-hunter tank. It’s still in pieces, getting painted.

The spider is going to be in Warhammer 3000 orc regalia, red and gun metal, and -of course- mucho rust and weathering.

Sherman? .. Hardly. :P

But it ìs getting a smaller gun, to make it look even more ‘off’ ( Hmmm.... I wonder if a KV-2 Turret will fit. I mean, talking about looking ‘off’ )I skipped the railgun idea. The involved electronics, to get a cascading array of blue leds with a super-bright white LED flash as an end result, was a bit too far above my head.

It would probably need an arduino and a lot of programming.. blèh. Too much like “work” ( Senior Engineer Infrastructure and Storage here... Don’t think too much of it.. I see a red light, and I push a -virtual- button. That’s it.. :haha: )

They móst certainly are. This is The Netherlands, where the early 1/24 soft-air Marui tanks could land you in prison for posession of an illegal weapon. Luckily they changed the law, but still. They’re completely paranoid afa anything gun-like goes.

Oddly enough, the super powerful type of Barnett crossbow that’s used to shoot climbing hooks, but can also shoot ordinary bolts through a car door f.i., were, and still àre, fully legal.. *scratching head*

Looking forward to seeing your new machine of destruction, S.O.A.G.!

I am beginning to develope a new futuristic what if 1947 weapon of doom. So far is only some drawings on the desk, but if I finish it someday (2-3 years) will be really really cool.

I love what if/futuristic stuff a lot.

Check this out.

Watch "Introducing Codename Colossus Mk.I Cyclops" on YouTube

And this, but pay special attention to the machine guns just after 50 seconds, why don't our tanks do that?

Watch "First reveal of production prototype of Codename Colossus" on YouTube

OMG. Id happily would change all my tanks for those things.
