Well mashed and bashed this together, what do you all think?

Nice and chunky, and you can never have too many rivets!  lol

The track fender tops, however, look too futuristic for my taste. I'd suggest adding a top plate with rivets to bring it more in line with the rest of the tank.

I like that, I agree about the fender tops though also a few rivets on the door would be nice :D

Very nice, with the bonus of being original too.

Like it!

Cool, and I agree with the tread comment.

Looks great.
Very realistic height - reminiscent of the A7V.

How was it made?

Thanks much. The space above the door, I think that is were the commander/navigator sit, slightly above the gun. Calling down to the crew 'Right turn, target 500 yards!!'. Door and tred w more rivets? Hmm ok will try. I thought door as an armored plug.

I think it's wonderful.  What was the original track donor?

Sweet looking model.
I agree with the others.
A little rivets around the treads would look great.

Very nice.

I agree about the need to do something to the track covers. I would cover the fronr and rear parts of the track covers with something a bit squarer and definately rivited where it meets te rest of the track cover. Maybe also a couple of victorian style carriage lamps on the front covers.
