Enn'llien SteamTank (ANBG Bucking Gustav) miniature for RPG

thingiverse

I'm playing a Half-elf Gunsligner/gunsmith and inventor named Enn'll Nothridge who's life work is creating a series of steam powered medieval mobile artillery, which I call my "All New Big Gun" series. This one, the Bucking Stalion or affectionately the Bucking Gustav, gets serious with a huge canon that required doubling the rear axels and then the rear wheels so it can pivot backward on those wheels to absorb the recoil of the shot, making it look like a bucking beast. The platform has been reinforced with 6 additional pillars and changes to the shape of the body. High roof railings help keep the canon crew onboard after shooting, although I admit it would be a wild ride and not a good one. The Game Master will never allow it to be made in our campaign, sadly. Don't glue the canon and canon quoin down, at this scale you can click them down but keep them unglued to change the canon angle. Basic printing instructions for each part are in their name following this logic: [model name (base if common to most)][part name][helpful assembly info, mostly left or right][ (need support) if needed][how many are needed if more than 1]. For example: Base_driverod(need_support)_print(X2). If you want, connect all axels except the front directional one with 4 loops of string on the inside and outside edge of the wheels on both sides to replicate the chains that would act like tank treads in rough terrain. Add more string to connect each side of the front axel to the direction pulley under the tank. The models aren't to scale with 30mm miniatures, they are scaled down to 1:88, a normal 176cm person next to the model would be 2cm high.
