LEGOdovian battle tank

Post by jifel » Sat May 09, 2009 4:26 pm

This is for Pesgores army, so I get a spot in his next battle! :D

Image

Image

Two forward facing guns.
Image

*gasp* A triangle!!!!!!
Image

Treads and side armour.
Image

Pilot in the main turret. Armour gives 2/3 protection, so you can still snipe him! :D :D
Image

Image

The turret is on a swivel.
Image

The section with the swivel is lifted easily.
Image

Inside is a pilot seat, survival pack, extra space and a VIP seat.
Image

A man can easily sit in the VIP chair, there is a walky talky on the wall nearby.
Image

You can see a bit of the pilot.
Image

The empty pilots seat.
Image

The crew standing outside:

Measurements

The tank is 5 inches long, 5 inches wide with side armour, which can be removed. The tank is 4 inches tall with turret, the two side guns are 2 inches long. The main gun is also 2 inches long, while the machine gun on the turret is about 1 inch.

C+C are welcome, I will improve this for Pes before making instructions.

I don't see why it needs more than what I gave it, personel-wise.

One gunner, one pilot. Although there's a gunner on the actual turret itself...

You could give that guy a machinegun/AA defense

no, it's just that in the description jifel said that there was a pilot in the turret and then he said that there was a pilot in the main body of the tank. he probably meant gunner the first time he said pilot.

Bit high sided and blocky for my taste but other than that it's prety good stuff.

I put armour on it. lots of armour. The tanks main hull is 6 studs wide including walls, plus armour covering the treads. The point is that there will be few weak spots, except the Gunner (my mistake)

Awesome tank, I especially like the side details. I look forward to being able to drive this in Project Pegosaur.
Are all the guns "standard" guns, or does the main cannon fire explosive shells?

Thats up to Pes on Stats. It may not be in Pegosaur as he will have to bricklink for some parts. I know he is lacking the treads, probably some other pieces.

Pegosaur is still in the early prep phase, which is code for "I don't have everything built yet." So he'll probably have time to get the parts, because when we start is up to him.

I love it. Approved.

It won't make it to Pegosaur, but it will get you the spot. Good job.

Pretty sweet tank, jifel! Perhaps the three crew members consist of a pilot, a navigator, and a main gunner
