I’ll be happy to answer questions, it’s a cool tank mecha. Can switch from
Tank to mecha.

Hey nice! dig that use of the #2. Treds! lot’s of treds! Bendy! It’s bendy!

Big heavy hatch on front and the treads roll. Lots of credit to give; the
Double ball joint system (al-la E. Sophie and M. Clancy) works uber well.

I really like the construction of the upper half of the Tank/Mech all the tan
with those slopes, well, it looks really cool. The blue and tan work nice.

Inspiration was lifted from classic-space dot com’s
concept art page.
Color was largely helped along with my recent interation with Dan Rubin,
making me rethink the value of tan.

I have always like tank mechs that have variable crawl geometry. So it is cool
to look at. I wanted to say I like the way you made the cockpit. Nice.
A suggestion if you don’t mind. I was thinking to partially cover the upper part
of the treds, like with a floating flap or armour. You know to protect the
treds. (tan plates and hinges)
Either way, nifty, I like it. Thank for sharring.
