LOL! 105mm twinned, and then up-gun to 120mm twinned guns, either with ability to hit 2 targets, or make sure one target is gone.

Dragons fear nothing, if it acts up, we breath magic fire that turns them into marshmallow peeps. We leaguers only cry rivets!

lol yep any target would be securly gone with such a hitter.... it was as i read built to be driving and shooting and the comp would compensate this early in the century the disturbances of the movements while tracking its enemy...holy...

oh see I see MANY problems with that design.

no rotating turrut means you have to orient the tank to point directly at the target, the stabilize. (unless it has like a 5 or 10* slew I am unaware of)

not to mention shooting the main gun (or in this case guns) while driving is impossible, one of the many reasons the Abrhams is to powerful today actually.

and that low profile is very nice, but it also start making terrain a problem as the wheels have a lower incline point.

still cool looking though

Well, it can make for a nice sniper tank, lying in wait for a target. But it was another Cold War Era machine. So many experiments in weaponry were tried.

The camera does not show the wash effect on the plain Devlan Mud wash I used earlier, making them seem
clean
but I assure you, they are dirty tanks all!

No worries Vik, I can see them anytime you post 'em! As for the Leman Russ Tanks, about 12 of them to get painted and such.AND the Baneblade/Malcador/Valdor/T-350/T-290 as well. And the half dozen Chimeras and three tractors for the Thudd-guns to paint!Plus the guns

LOL! the real challenge for the Malcador is that the treads are all individual pieces and allow the model to literally roll across the table if pushed right.

They are already a good color, and I do tend to do mass batch painting already has my infantry has shown you.

but I have seen that the links can be done! Seems I should get me some colored static powders as well for the effects here: http://www.missing-lynx.com/gallery/allied/charb1bismb_2_1.html

Yeah Tamiya fetches a high price, but their detail level is insane.

Char 1 was a nightmare for the Wehrmacht to deal with in 1940.

And now, I have found this is coming!

Nah, it is a heavy tank that has a 12 man crew and 75mm/45mm and several machine guns all over it.

yep, remember that version of your malcador fondly^^

12 man crew in that beast of steel... might get a bit whiffy in there in no short order^^

the two engine system seems quite sensible when you think about it... in combat situation this would give you a second chance to be at least a moving target after the first hit...like to hearts in your chest...
