   Neat design!  It's tanky without being, well,
   "tanky".  The color scheme is very nice indeed.
   I'm unsure of how the crew fits, though--more
   detail shots needed, perhaps?  (Ldraw? ;) )

Oddly enough, i started with the gun and worked from there.  the tank itself
is really kinda easy to build, and i'm sure i could build two or three more
than the two i have without seriously endangering my collection. i dunno, but
i think this is a really cool quality.

   It's also a very, very, *very* Soviet quality.
   Designing the vehicle around the gun is pretty
   authentically Elefant, in the German sense of
   the name.  Clearly, this is an Eastern Block
   machine, designed for maximum punch and maximum
   serviceability, ease of manufacture and numbers,
   while sacrificing on comfort and, well, fenders.
   But who needs fenders when you can just blow
   stuff up?

   best
