M-10 Wolverine

Post by SoCalBobS »

NUMBER 2

This is my M-10 Wolverine, in a color scheme seen in Italy in 1943. It is a Vandramodel resin conversion kit sitting on a Heng Long M4 Sherman chassis. The turret rotates 360 degrees, necessary to stow and secure the barrel facing backwards during routine travel. The gun elevates by a servo. I did not do a build thread. If I had, it'd be mostly filled with me filing, sanding, routing and cutting, not much else!

No doubt you've noticed the protrusion with red lights sticking up from the turret in some of the photos. All of my tanks are "working" tanks, to be used in club battles. The object is an Infrared Receiver that registers hits from other tanks. It's removable. I leave them on for my convenience.

NUMBER 3

I'll stick my neck out with the Fighting Girlfriend, Did a lot of research and got it as close as I could to the original. the trick with this tank is it is possible to see the drivers perspective as you drive the tank.
