Hi all
It’s a little crude, but I think it has promise. Certainly has enough dakka options to satisfy the new marine vehicle aesthetic

What is going on with those tracks? Are they all individual wheels with treads wrapped around the tire?

Let's talk about how the top row of wheels does nothing

Yeah, the motive system seems to be fundamentally flawed, but the overall shape of the thing looks pretty good.

I am hoping that those wheels are meant to attach the tracks and that the designer as seen a tank before?
Regardless, it seems a bit too simple for a kickstarter, there is not much that you get once it funds, even with stretch goals. It seems a bit like a low effort campaign.

Likely they chose the KS route just to get more eyes on the model launch than if they just released it into a store.
It's an effective enough marketing strategy, we're talking about it...
As for the wheels, I'd speculate this might be one of those cases of trying to be different to lessen a cease and desist, but also just a "I don't understand how vehicles actually work" thing.

That looks bad and not well-designed for printing.

As well as the terrible wheels/tracks situation, the pintle gun is mounted via the barrels. I can just imagine it firing and the barrels remaining stationary while the receiver is spinning wildly at the back

The side sponson weapon looks like it would tear itself from its mount if fired.
