The M4A3E8 Sherman, also known as Easy 8 due to its experimental designation E8, featured a HVSS wide track and suspension upgrade that significantly enhanced its stability and ride quality. This variant entered WWII in December 1944 and was later employed during the Korean conflict and Cold War era by various countries. The model was initially crafted in Cinema 4D 9.5, offering close-up render detailing. The accompanying zip file encompasses bodypaint textures and standard materials. This meticulously detailed scene contains 16 materials and three bump maps. It is ready for immediate rendering with no additional cleanup required. The model works seamlessly with all materials, bodypaint textures, and textures included in the package. Opening the scene necessitates no special plugins. Phong shading interpolation/smoothing is set at 35°. In LightWave, users must manually load the three bump maps (Gun_R, Turret_E8_R, and Hull_R) in the Material channel. The model is compatible with obj, lwo, 3ds, and fbx file formats (version 2010). Notably, the M4A3E8 Sherman's success can be attributed to its HVSS suspension upgrade, which was so effective that it saw continued use throughout post-WWII engagements, including Korea.
