WWII-era M4 Sherman Tank

...This is no sherman. It's...ok. But this looks like a lesser version of another sherman fail on BA forums. Linkage

I mean no offense in this, but it needs...a lot of work.

...I've said that. l2read, plzthnxbai.

And, that's the tank I based it off. Secondly, check out all the comments on that tank. They're all supportive and say it's a great tank. Maybe your tank's a fail.

Excuse me? There is no "criticism" on BA forums, and many of those comments on there are noobs. People rarely ever post any constructive criticism on BA forums, mainly because they just want to post a short compliment to get another post closer to higher rank! And MY Sherman is a fail?...bahahahahaha. No. It looks more like the real thing than both of those tanks, but it's certainly not the best. And don't make this about someone else's MOC, your tank is ok. But if you just take away some of those pieces and other grays it would be better. And if my previous post sounded "harsh" I didn't intend it that way.

OK, I'm sorry for saying your tank is fail. And I didn't know that BA forums are swarmed by noobs and there is no C&C seeing as I don't you there. Yes, it does look more like a real sherman, but I just find the front is too plain. But maybe if you explain 'other pieces' a bit closer I could try that, and I wouldn't mix greys if I had all the available pieces...

Well for example take off that dome on the front, and take of that dreadful big sloped dome on the back... And remove the slopes on the sides, the real sherman was flat on left and right side.

Hmm, I think I have a solution for all this..

I'll just make it my own tank, and call it the M3 infantry support tank. Thanks for the C&C though!

Sorry this is somewhat of topic, but how do you guys make the tracks for the tanks?

*facepalm*

The tracks are from LEGO sets, PhiMa just placed them on his tank.

Oh my gosh I love it! You are a wonderful World War II builder! Keep it up!

I've modified the M3 today, and before any of you say 'ZOMG u not listin to wut we said!' I changed it, so it's no longer a Sherman, it's a Tank I made up for WWII. The M3 Infantry Support tank.

First off, I added an interior, complete with controls and Pilot:


And then I placed the 4x4 plate differently, so now it's no longer loose, I'm moved the one of the chain further left, and I added an axe and shovel on the sides:


Enjoy! I hope my second race for the stolen treasure comes soon, cause then I can present Fox Company of the 101st Airborne to you.

I could make Easy, seeing as I'm watching Band of Brothers at the moment, but I don't think it'd look right if I make Easy with M3 IST's.

No, I mean a real Company with a made-up tank.


Ah, What the heck, I'll do Easy, and I've already got a plan for Winters and probably the medic.

I'm getting Race for They Stolen treasure off LEGO.com once they restock...

-DP: Don't expect too much, it's probably just going to be the torso's with some special pants, the right faces, and the plain old lego rifles, the two vehicles and maybe some mortars...

-Faie: Mine should be on it's way at the moment.
