Description
-Well i lasted almost 2 weeks without making any tanks.
Renault Ft-17
This is my favourite (and the best) tank of world war 1, it also saw service in the spanish civil war and ww2.
Designed in 1917 it was the first tank to house its main armament in a rotating turret and was the oldest tank still in service during ww2. As far as i know it was also the only tank to be used by German/French/Polish/Spanish and US forces.
It had a top speed of about 7.5mph, running on a 39bhp petrol engine, with a 2 man crew.
The model shown here has the earlier octagonal turret with a 37mm low velocity main gun.
+This one is painted up as a French training unit, however they came in German/Polish/Spanish and US designs also.
-Ok thats enough of a history lesson,
comments welcome...

Great model with excellent textures and detail! V!
Yes as above...The ground texture looks awesome too and tanks for the history:) V
Nice tank. It looks like kind of...cute! Great job
I did one of these befor a Renault FT 17 mine had the machine gun turret in the rounded turrett. I did not do the rivits however. Yours is a better model than mine.
Love it, as with all your work, especially your tanks (even if there are a zillion of them :P). I love the chain at the back the most, it looks so naturally placed. Jealous!!
Wow, fantastic work.
Nothing new to say about you work, excellent as always
as always, splendidly done. you should design one of your own tanks and design it by your own mind. i'd love to see it!
Love this one, the texture and modeling of course are amazing! With such light it looks like model kit! Great great work
another great work, youre a real pro!
what an ugly-looking tank design...it certainly looks as ancient as it is hehe you did a great job modelling and texturing it though. top stuff :)
Great work - I love your tanks.... keep em coming.
Awesome Model,Excellent Work
Great model. Excellent textures and modeling.
Now this is so sweet... :-D - amazing modeling and render!
Flak, as usual, great model. I think you may have a problem. The first step in getting better is admitting you have a problem. Say this out loud, " Hi, my name is Flakmonkey, and I am a Tank-a-holic" Baby steps Flak, baby steps.
