The APC looks very French early 1930s flavour, a bit of Art Deco armour...

Well, my picture quality seems to be consistently dropping, but here is the last (for now) variant of the APC, a mortar carrier. For all your short distance light artillery needs.

You’ve got some great detail on that.

See what you mean about the photos, seem to be struggling with focus and depth of field.

Cheers,

And aye, I should just get the old photobooth out and set it up with proper light and featureless backdrop. But that feels like such a hassle for a quick snapshot.  >:(

Some very early WIP shots of a tankette. I started off roughly the size of the ft17, but compared to the APC I think it could be a bit larger.

I think a tad larger would work, but not too much  :)

Bit larger, loads more details. I'll see about printing the first prototype tonight.

I have a printed version of the tankette and I'm not sure about it. it feels to realistic, to clean. Tankettes are a bit silly to begin with, but this one feels quite reasonable and therefore less fitting with the rest of the vehicles!

Maybe have a pig driver sticking out the hatch on top  :D

Seriously though, I do think the tankettes are a Ghibli thing (and Manga in general) so stick with it and do a couple more for a 'squadron'.

I took some steps away from the tankette for a couple of days and then re-designed it with Alban the dieselkrieg guys input. It looks a bit more robust but, to me at least, has a lot more character.
