Re: [GALLERY] Cagerrin - Forerunner Erections Galore
Mostly just eyeballed off the Panther/II, lengthened a bit, extra plate over the transmission(lead-wheel drive on tanks is /retarded/ and needs armour). Also a bit of JgPzIV for the casemate since the rear case for the JP is badly sloped.
(colours are plate punchability in the style of that A-10 manual)

Front plate around mantlet(well, it's sort of mantlet but very prelim because I had to test elev/depr/trav) is pretty derpy, not entirely sure what to do with it.
(went kind of nuts modeling the breach for the 10.5cm L/100, will get renders later)
Re: [GALLERY] Cagerrin - Forerunner Erections Galore
suddenly adding tracks tripled the tricount to 80k-ish. I'm pretty much overdetailing this as it's for a WoT contest thing and I want to do cutaways.

Re: [GALLERY] Cagerrin - Forerunner Erections Galore
watch out, the WoT contests are kind of tricky--they've indicated in the past that they don't give a fuck about quality! :v:
Re: [GALLERY] Cagerrin - Forerunner Erections Galore
Yeah, I kind've noticed that, though since I can't write worth a shit I probably won't bother actually entering this, it's just fun to model. Doing a full visual(haha I could try functional engine models and such but too much of a pain) interior for it, I think. 5, maybe 6 crew(paired loaders or something), double engines, 10.5cm PaK 46 L/100(+20/-8, 15/15)(should get exact measurements at some point, but the chassis is only slightly longer than the gun, as a scale ref).
Re: [GALLERY] Cagerrin - Forerunner Erections Galore
Your wheel arrangement is wrong for a torsion bar suspension, the roadwheels on one side need to be advanced a few inches ahead of the other so the bars have room to run across the floor
Re: [GALLERY] Cagerrin - Forerunner Erections Galore
Yeah, you can tell how bad I am at tanks just by looking at it.
Using half-length bars connected to a center mounting rail would reduce their effectiveness, right?
(I am also bad at planes, but at least it has more internal space than the F-35~)
Re: [GALLERY] Cagerrin - Forerunner Erections Galore
Nice airplane rossmum Cagerrin.
Re: [GALLERY] Cagerrin - Forerunner Erections Galore
its kinda basic but if you're going for style it's pretty sweet.
Re: [GALLERY] Cagerrin - Forerunner Erections Galore
(I guess it is pretty basic, but I've been working directly with the geometry so it doesn't feel like it)
went back and completely remodeled the wings, previously they were logical-extension-of-geometry rather than proper airfoils and the geo itself was really messy
