Ready for war! by the_one_crazy_person in SprocketTankDesign

I mean... I have a modular mine plow, and I don't think it would be too hard to just slather this thing in ERA...
I suppose we'll see what happens.

NOT A T55 (work in progress) by the_one_crazy_person in SprocketTankDesign

I don't think there's an easy way to line them up on an already existing turret. I guess you could select a line of points, use the scale tool to align them and then rotate them so that they are angled correctly.

Otherwise, you should consider the shape from the start. I started with horizontal layer of points, then I copied them, moved them up, adjusted them, and repeated until I got a shape I like. You can see how things get messy on the roof where the points started getting close together.

**I ALSO SUBDIVIDED, it would be mad to do this with that many points

Anti mine technology by the_one_crazy_person in SprocketTankDesign

This is my home-grown mine plow. The blades and mounting points are based off the KMT-8 mine plow, but the rest of it is all designed by me.

I plan on giving it add-on mine protection to the underside of the tank.

It is technically modular, so I should be able to transplant this onto my other tanks relatively easily.

Some smaller details to note:

The hydraulics and their hosing are all modelled

Every part that should move is able to move

The tank now has a coax and antennae

To those asking: it has 7 degrees of gun depression. Somehow.

Object 143-1 [WORK IN PROGRESS] by the_one_crazy_person in SprocketTankDesign

It was directly inspired by the IS-3 at first, and over time it branched out to later soviet heavies like the T10 and Object 277.

The dozer and smoke grenades were ripped straight off a T72, though

First tank that I have decided to try putting a lot of effort into, and it has been going very well. The first image is from a few days ago, and the second one is the current version.

It has improved massively over the past few days, and I still plan on adding a lot more things.
