Honestly, I love the new modifications more than I do the new name Razz

. I think she looks (and sounds) a whole lot better! Bravo!

OK, I've updated her yet again, but this time, I think I've finalized her. Here she is:

The M3 Infantry Support Tank

I've removed all old greys, changed the turrent, removed side greebles, added plates, removed the antenna, changed the piece on the M1919 Browning to black, and much more.

The Side:

Side shot. Greebles removed, plates added, old greys removed.

The Back:

Back shot. I removed the chain and antenna, and added a second light. All old greys removed, and more tiles added.

The Front:

Front shot. Added plates, a front light, changed two corner slopes into 2x2 Slopes.

The Turret:

Turret shot. Changed and shortened the barrel, all old greys removed, revised the hatch function and changed the bley neck bracket into a black one. Also added more tiles.

And Finally, the Interior:

Not much to say here really.

Well, to finish it off, I have to say I'm pleased with her, and I had to revise her a couple times to make her right. Comments and C&C is appreciated! Enjoy!

Nice! Definitely a big improvement on the 1st version.

UBER-EPIC-BUMP

But, it's worth it, for those who don't check my Flickr.

My new Model:

All the Models I've made in the past:

And now, a special attachment I made for it today, a Dozer Blade (It's historically accurate!):

Enjoy! I think I've really improved it over time...

It's perfect except for the treads. I'm not saying you should, but you could do two rows of small treads like BrickMania does. The dozer is quite good as well! Wink

Wow, it is the best stage so far.
With the Dover Blade, it reminds my of Wall-e.
Razz

I like the tank's new version! The bulldozer attachment is also pretty good! Smile

I'd post something really long but I'm in a hurry so, long story short, it's awesome! The blade, the smoothness, and, what really stood out was the loss of backpacks again. Those just didn't fit right. Maybe change the wheels holding the treads, but by far, best ever.

PhiMa on Thu Nov 19, 2009 12:31 pm

@Pizza: Thanks, but Brickmania found a model with wider treads, plus I'd need about 240 of those treads...

@Pyro: I believe you mean Dozer blade. Razz

@CKill: Yeah, Backpacks looked odd, plus I need them for some figs...as for the wheels, I'm probably only changing the top front one, the rest are pretty much accurate.
