Description
I really am just a big kid when it comes to tanks, despite the fact they`re used to kill people i still think they`re great.
It took an afternoon to model and around a day to texture. I know some folk will not like the sharpened render but um...tough.
+ i realise the aerial and other stuff on there would actually stop the turret rotating fully but it was like that on my reference photos too.
comments welcome...

Terrific piece of modelling, v impressive as always.
You modelled this is an afternoon? Damn. I thought I was rather fast... :-P Your textures are great, as always. Nice work!
Beautiful work. Congrats!
as always, museum quality work! Very very impressive.
given a week, i might be able to make and maybe texture the treads. give me a month and i might have an untextured stripped-down version of this. 1.5 days for this is pretty amazing.
Dear God, this is great! I was seeking a model of a tiger tank a year ago, as this is the type of tank that my father described being driven by the Nazis who captured and interrogated him!
curse you and you fast modeling skills! fantastic work! great texture too!
WOW! Beautiful job on many levels. Not the most graceful of tanks, actually, just a brute of power but probably my favorite!
top notch modeling!!!I love the "old style"! :) oh and nice lighting too!!
I love tanks too and this is a beauty. Awesome job. Also the speed you modeled and textured this is faster than we pay people at work. You should think about freelance art.
Mate, you've done it again! You should really think about producing your own CD or DVD tutorials and selling them. The speed at which you work and the quality of your results are astounding!!
Awesome image... I thik that the placement of the aerial implies that it is a command tank with the improved comm equipment.
do I even have to say anything ? :D
cheers all, everyone seems to think i model real quick but when i say an afternoon, i mean a whole afternon sat in front of my monitor not moving, thats like six hours of solid modelling. ive seen a few other folks model a little bit at a time, but i just hate to even leave my pc until its done for fear i`ll forget what i was doing :)
Six hours of solid modelling and you only managed to knock up that??!! :-D I'm with RaysOfLight, in 6 hours I might have just about done the tracks ... on a good day!! This is outstanding work. When I grow up I want to be like you!!
This is what I wanted to do with Rhino but I couldnot.You done it excellent
Impresive model, not sure about the "eatme" though, cant seem to find that in my big book of wermacht markings. Nice work :D
an afternoon a? guiness book of records I think need to be called my friend. That is an amazing task, you must be working on a daily basis being able to model that quickly? oh and great work
Amazing! All your models are soooo good and so detailed too.
would be really helpful if you could share some of your modelling techniques
