Started with a standard HL Sherman and this 3d printed kit.

After a lot of attempts and sometimes painting and a little love, it ended up like this.
Here video with many more pictures

You're welcome
Myself personally, I'd love a tulip system for a firefly.

No, it's not the model you see the most, I've personally always liked it, maybe because the idea is so crazy

Out of left field yes, but not that outlandish.

Thank you for posting the videos, RKRC. Perhaps sometime I can try doing so, but right now I have nothing spectacular like yours.

Nice build. Was the calliope a small scale kit you upsized and printed or was it made in 1/16th originally?

I'm more into making small videos than having pictures taken and or I put pictures together for a video.
