A front shot showing the overall shape of the tank.
A rear shot. These are 2 stowing boxes at the back of the turret for stowing the crew things.
A side shot. The little thing beside the remote-controlled machinegun is a camera for the commander.
A frontal shot. I like the way the tank turned out. I think it's one of my best creation ever.
I have to say that I was inspired by Evan Melick's M23 ''Grizzly'' tank.
O_o Someone's been inspired by me? Thanks!
Awesome tank! Has a lovely shape. You've given me a few ideas on how to make the Griz better actually.
I like it

I absolutely love your LDD stuff! It can be really annoying at times... Annyway, I use it for most of my MOCs. About the tank. The detail is top notch, the turret is great, and the sloped armor looks really good! Happy MOCing!
