Seahawk's real projects.

I was a troll, spammer and noob back those days. But I had modeled a howitzer in 2014 and assault gun in 2015 (Made from cardboard, cannon made by metal pipe). Though they lacked motors. The howitzer got destroyed in mock battle. (That mock battle is a battle performed by me and 2 other people using such model tanks/artillery). And that assault gun never saw combat and was scrapped by me. And now, I've started 3 projects:
The tank and the SPAA will have motors. (I am planning to add motor to the tank's turret. The mock battle is done by fireworks and firecrackers.

Heavy Tank Design:

SPAA Design:

It's very difficult to draw MLRS design using mouse. :razz: So, I can't show it. The real diagrams differ and are on paper and my scanner is knocked out so I can't show them.

I'll show the real photos as soon as I finish them. I've cancelled an half finished assault gun since it was very useless to make with cardboard. (Since the pipe was very heavy). And my arm is broken and I can't do wooden work. So, somebody else has done it. (The design was made by me). And the other assault gun's chassis is being used for the tank.

They are actually nothing but toys operated by motors (Not RC, wired) and are made with cardboard and armoured with aluminium.

Other than that, about civil , a double decker bus is my WiP.

Body, chassis and firepower completed of the gun truck
(Cancelled assault gun's chassis used)

Wheels will be complete next month after I'll get wires of making turning wheels. Now, I'll soon start work on the tank when rains stop. :D

The Gun Truck is finished. Currently as a self-propelled multiple rocket launcher. Will get its AA version soon.
Image
It is a wired motor vehicle but lacks suspension since it's for time pass. And uses parts of a RC car. The tank won't be the same and will have suspension. :D

Not bad :aprobar: :)
Perhaps on your future versions you can make them more presentable, like giving it some textures*.
The mock battle is done by fireworks and firecrackers.
Really!? 8O Maybe you can make a movie like clip with the mock battle. :idea:

[spoiler]*Textures!? Don't ask what I was thinking, I just couldn't come up with a more convenient word. :P[/spoiler]

I think Carfan was joking about the textures, see his spoiler. We all know you're obviously not making this for MM2. :P

Anyway, I like what you've done with this project so far. :)

That's why I said it was a poor choice of words. I tried avoid this misunderstanding by making that spoiler. All I meant was covering it with coloured paper, or paint it, to make it look neater.

I know, I just pointed that out to him because I suspected he didn't read your spoiler anyway and took what you said seriously :wink:

Progress:
The truck is textured
The tank under construction. Only need to add road wheels, idler, motor, turret and cannon now. And to join the hull and chassis. The armament will be an anti-tank gun and flamethrowers. :twisted:

Why do you remove almost everything from the pic and put white space? The pics aren't comfortable to see

The battle is from today for 3 days. :twisted:

The battle has been finished but with no significant result since no one made a catapult this time. But next year I'll surely have a catapult that can launch the most dangerous firecracker. Which can break 1cm wood into two and bend 1mm aluminium. :twisted:
By the way this is how I modified by truck before the battle. It is now a MLRS.

It has working headlights. It's motor was lost in the battlefield though.

I wasn't satisfied to mass produce the older model. That's why I'm making a new truck model. The body is ready. Will be working on the chassis now. It won't have suspension but use large monster truck style wheels to work. :fight:
Image

Blasts from the past:
The first model of a gun-howitzer I made. It is very scrap though. I had made it back in 2014.
Image
The cardboard cannon was replaced with an aluminum one though I don't have any photos.......
