Great tank shazo , its really oldschool sci fi reminds me of an old Les ewards picture from blood & Iron artbook , will have to get a scan of it for ya.
Found a pic of the tank i talking about.. btw what was your new tank from , i expect some japanese manga or anime if its that cool and 1982
this pic is by the renouned Les edwards (website) http://www.lesedwards.com/showpic.php?id=4&pid=451 who did a fair bit for gw back in the day and this pic was in his artbook blood and iron published by gw. notes from his website wher the actual pic is for sale for £600 i would buy if i had the cash. i really respect this britsih sci fi artist , his style is so 1970's and early 80's
Dread Hulk
Looks like you are replacing the main barrel with a smaller one and adding a larger barrel higher up the tank, i may have misread your designs, but if thats right, that is more of a taditional tank design. the shroud idea would protect the vents nicely , are you going to add plenty of battle dammage ? or is it a fresh from the factory one?
Wow your doing a great job Shazo! thanks for all the nice scale pics as well , it seams its perfect . look forward to watching it grow. Did you say your going to make that russian tank as well ? if so wicked , will be watching that also.
not stirckly a tank , but i have always had a fancy to create some antarctic vehicles , for a winter ig regiment.

and the dread hulk painted up , looks great . really like your decals and its low profile. you have nearly as many threads as Vik if you two teamed up it would a mega thread like never before seen
The tank is fantastic ! really nice attention to detail matey. But then again you do know your tanks;-) i saw these the other day and thought you might find them handy on this project. i plan on picking some up in the near future. nuts and bolts and rivets galore...
More oddballs !! nice stuff , and the hatch is lovely work ,, well the whole tank is lovely work , so much attention to detail ... Baiyuan would be proud !! you really have outdone yourself shazza , it is an amazing job!
as for that oddball M1918 Ford 3 ton Light Tank . have you seen the test videos , they crack me up , especially at 41 seconds lol
The Perun looks good with some colour on , in fact she is the best looking tank in your arsenal imo . she could be produced by forgeworld shes that good .

Well better to have a roof than a beastman i was thinking of selling off my scenery to make space for more , but the p&p would kill it , for most potential buyers i think.
The dirtying up of the perun is going well, are you going to add chipped paint before the wash ?

Hey Shazo , just catching up with your wonderful odd ball tank collection. The group shots of the the tanks on the previous pages are nice , its good to see them all together , its sometimes hard to make out the sizes of them individually .
I noticed several new editions since the last time i checked in . The claymores and those low profile tanks above all looking suitably dirty as is the the Perun matey. keep it up fella! its always good to see what else you have added to your armored legion. Oh and the potential new commissar is a must!
