[BB20] Type 31 infantry tank

[AnnoyedZebra]

A popular tank among low level German and Anglotainnian knightly families, the type 31 can be found through out the central sectors also be found in service throughout the central sectors.


The famed reliability of this design is often attributed to its legendary designer, Bleyland the smith. Popular legend dates the design to the time of Futuron before the Deadly Space Emperor's rise to power, but scholars of the Eternian and Amalfi archives believe the pattern to be a later invention.


After millenia of military campaigns, countless wrecked tanks of all patterns populate the battlefields of the central sectors. This type 31 wrecked on a largely primitive world is no exception. It is unknown what happened to the crew but the chronicles of a nearby village tell of three men who had travelled with an army from the stars and escaped a burning chariot. One was too fatally wounded and buried in the village cemetery. One returned to his people and one settled down in the village, his descendants rising to become the lords of the local manor through hard work and through marriage

That tank is great! I also like the lore about the three crew members!

That last image looks so clean it's almost like it's made in stud.io but then I look closer and notice the dents. Crazy.

The last image is in studio.

The biggest giveaway is that I accidentally clipped some flowers into the ground like an idiot

Didn't even notice that, I was paying attention to the dents in the tree.

Righty-o.

I really love this tank. It is so small, and it fits the German idea, the very last picture is what really got me. The flower clipping is a problem, but the run down tank in the tree is just so beautiful, it makes me wonder what could have happened on that planet...

I don't know how well this moves, but the tanks treads don't look to stable to me. The pieces you used for the turret and the little piece on the back are really smart.

Your photos are really good, the last one though, is still my favorite.

I don't see a boast anywhere, so I am giving you a 1, but if that story at the end counts for anything, then you get a 6

Its small size is both its charm and its downfall, it's a beautifully designed miniature tank but it must've been quite the challenge to find the right parts. The stud.io image and the story attached to it is beautiful, but I feel like that's an LDD thing.

Substance [ 7 ]
It's a wonderful looking design and well-built but seems to lack mobility and minifigs can't really interact much with it.

Photography [ 8 ]
The first two shots have clear backgrounds and proper lighting, the model is clear enough to look at the details and bricks used. Lack of parts breakdown though, and the last image doesn't really count for this. Doesn't stud.io have a way to show a breakdown (by putting the parts separate from each other on display) without having to mess up your actual build? That would've been useful while you were building that one.

No boast, no drink recipe.
