Duane,

Thanks for responding, I'm a big fan of (and very inspired by)  your motorized
tank!

Nice work!

The Bulldog and Badger both have two guys in their turrets and I got them as
compact (narrow) as I could. The MCV turret is seven bricks wide and could be
slimmed down a little, though I liked trying to create the effect/impression of
a gradually sloping turret, using wedges. I came up with a design for a one-man
turret that was only 4 studs wise, using panels, which I may use at some point.
All in all, I've found panels to be some of the most useful bricks for this kind
of building.

cheers

Magnus

(...) I'm glad you like it. (...) I missed the fact that there are two 'figs in the turret. Knowing that, I think you've done an excellent job. Just remember that panels are useful in so many different orientations... Jonesy tought me that. -Duane (18 years ago, 19-Jul-06, to lugnet.build.military)
