I got bored, I have woodworking tools.
Pretty close size wise.
Intended to be tough enough for children to play with, so details had to be sacrificed.

Hehe, my nephew did a guillotine with my help for his technik lessons. It does cut a carrot
On the wooden tank: I´d have no problem with it in any format, as i would let the work put into it speak for itself.

For those interested in making your own:
Standard 1/4" graph paper.
Painted and ready for action:
Although in scale with a 40K battlewagon she is a little weedy next to the kid's existing tanks...
May need to make the next one a little bigger...

How much work would it be to incorporate working axles into the design? Should just be a drilled hole and a dowel. Might be hard with the treads in the back.

The wheels spin - they're just mounted loosely on screws.

Nice paint job too!
My four year old son is totally jealous. Me too if I'm honest.
Full marks all round.

These are cool!
I see you are screwing the pieces together.
Have you considered integrating the screws into the visual design a little more?
I see you've already used screws as axles for the wheels, so why not take it a step further?
For example how feasible would it be when screwing the track units on to put the screws in the corner positions so they look like the wheels for the tracks to spin around?
