Pssst .... you're forgetting the Shermie. The war in Europe had 2 fronts.

Shermie, baybee .... then give the panzerlied club their 29 additional makes and models of German uber-clank.

OK Skinners get on it

Panther??

nice Tank but I would really lke to see more allied(American British) Armor as well

I must say that the T-34/76 is a much better looking tank than the Panzer IV H. The sloped armor just looks so much better on tanks.

i think he ment that panther and t-34/85 will come out later on cuz they need more smaller cal. tanks b4 they get into the super tanks

Looks good but is missing "something"

Perhaps its just too clean. Needs some mud spatters or something

Neh ... obviously the uberschturmhumptydoodle Mk69 500mm depleted uranium firing hovertank with dual quad electric gatlings for air defense that the spacebats built for Germany in the last year of the war.

Arlo,

I'd bet the next tank is a Sherman of some sort.

American, not British.

Hope you're right, Karnak. It makes sense, no?

How are we gonna fight the Battle of the Bulge with Soviet tanks? Patton would rise up from the grave and march down to HTC's offices with his pearl handled revolvers in hand.

Looks very very good. Very high resolution. Maybe the tracks could use a little better skin to give them some depth.
I think that is what 90% of surviving photos of war time T34s look like. Plane green like that.

Karnak. there are certian angles where the Late panzer IV with skirts looks pretty good. But there is no angle where it looks as good as a T34-76. and the T34-85 makes it look down right ugly.
The Germans really redeemed themselves with the Panther though.

T34 is actually a rather clumsy design... So is the PzIV.. The panzer III looks a lot better.

SunKing · « **Reply #26 on:** October 11, 2004, 06:36:30 PM »

PANTHER!

Karnak · « **Reply #27 on:** October 11, 2004, 06:46:27 PM »

Hmmm.

To me the Panzer III looks primitive.

The T-34/85, Panther V G and Tiger II are the best looking WWII tanks in my opinion.

There is something visceral about the Tiger I, but it doesn't look very modern. Flat 90° armor like the Panzer III, Panzer IV and Tiger I have just doesn't look good on tanks.

woot! Nice work Nate!

Ditto Sunking...

PANTHER!!!

Octavius · « **Reply #29 on:** October 11, 2004, 07:13:20 PM »

By the way, with the new moving parts inside the cockpit of the Ki84 and all, will we see this carry over to the external tracks/wheels of the T34? Would be neat to see some circular movement instead of the gumby-style sliding we have now
