Hi im currently thinking of making a LR Battletank with twin barrels ala mammoth tank or something like that for my IG.

Does anyone know of a similiar project and how its best done?

Any help would be appriciated

edit: replaced bad link.

Hmm.. my virus scan flagged that link up as a threat and prevented me from going there. What the hell is it?

With regard to twin barrelled battle tanks the Macharius heavy tank from Forgeworld fits the bill quite well.

If I had to guess, this post was made by a robot to trick people into clicking that link. The text of the post was probably copied from some other forum, without that user's knowledge.

No its supposed to show a mammoth tank. Ill replace the link.

How did you manage the weird malicious link on it anyway?

As Flinty has said, Macharius super heavy tank is what you are looking for:

Buy a 1/35 scale tank kit, the biggest you can find, and adapt the turret to two barrels.

It's going to help if you choose a model which has a wide, flattish turret front.

An M26 Pershing, or a Centurion, might do quite nicely.

Fill the central hole in the mantlet. Drill two holes for new barrels and use the biggest plastic rod you can get for them.

I dunno, i must check my anti-virus program when i get home. Because it flagged another picture as virus infested first, thats why i chose the last link.

The current link should be ok now.

The LR exterminator comes in twin-barrel form. I made my exterminator cannons less like autocannons and more like flak cannons when I did mine.

Otherwise, I think a 2-barrel LRBT would just be confusing.

Even better, Tamiya do a Centurion in 1/25th scale.
