SHERMAN MECH

thingiverse

Hey everyone, it's time to unveil my next Mech Tank project, which is heavily inspired by the iconic American Sherman. I've given this baby a radical makeover by drastically shortening its body and adding an entirely new lower section. The legs are actually remixed from filipturz's incredible Firewalker mech - be sure to check it out if you're into futuristic designs! I borrowed the turret from Jernej Primors outstanding Sherman tank, so don't forget to visit myminifactory for more awesome prints. To keep things simple and ensure a smooth print, the legs are only jointed where they connect to the tank. I've also included an extra file that allows you to print the headlights separately - if your printer isn't up to par, just sand them off and try again! I'm excited to announce that my next project will be the American Lee mech, followed by a mobile rocket launcher - stay tuned! Happy printing, and don't forget to wish me a happy new year. Be sure to check out my Facebook page, Bigbangcollectables, for even more amazing models. Update: 16/1/18 I've made some significant changes to the turret and gun to resolve the attachment issue.
