little update on the tank

setting up printing panels on how much i can fit in one print aaaand here is as far i can make for now. this is minus the track pieces

soon. project schedule shall commence in mid april

started up the printing sessions. this is merely the front glascias plates and the roof of the hull. note that there will be 2 turrets and also another part of the hull's length is till printing and will be done soon. now will move to the lower plates

Good morning, Giganaut,
This is a pretty amazing undertaking! If I can ever source tracks, I'll come talk to you about a Char B-1. That's been a fave French tank for a while.
Following along!

P.S. pretty much going to go with the Tamiya for the new KV-2 build with your turret. ;o)

i may need to redesign the tracks for easier printing and give it a stronger structure rather than having the track pins being the ones for the sprocket to drive with.

you might need to custom cut the track pins too. the length of the track links dont match the ones HL or tamiya makes.

ooh! awesome and i would like to see progression of it hehehehehe

progress and see the total length of the main hull!

Good morning, Giganaut.
If you print those tracks out, you should have a price for 'assembled' and 'kit' ;o)
