stej123 Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 (edited) I'm new here so I hope I make this thread in the right forum. I've build a few WW2 tanks that I would like to share with you. I have previously posted them on the Swedish Lego forum "Swebrick" and on Flickr. T-34/85 in scale 1:27 T-34/76 in scale 1:37,5 (somewhat minifig-scale) Panzerkampfwagen V "Panther" (Ausf. G) in somewhat minifig-scale (the scale is a bit "floating" to make it work) Panther and T-34/76 together: There are more pictures on my Flickr-page (that I can't link because of my non-excisting postcount) I hope you like it! stej123 Edited August 11, 2012 by Rufus Indexed Quote
Cave Bear Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 Nice! I think those are really good, the panther especially is superb any idea how long it took to make them each? Quote
stej123 Posted July 10, 2012 Author Posted July 10, 2012 Nice! I think those are really good, the panther especially is superb any idea how long it took to make them each? Thank you. I honestly have no idea how long it took to make them. The T-34/76 did not take that long to build, i few hours maybe. The T-34/85 and the Panther took much longer. The turrets on the Panther and the T-34/85 was what took the most time due to the fact that I had to rebuild them many times before I was satisfied. Quote

stej123 Posted July 15, 2012 Author Posted July 15, 2012 Thank you guys :) I to think the camo came out well. Here are some more pictures of the Panther: Quote
lightningtiger Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 AWESOME tanks 'stej123', that T-34 looks like it was driven straight out of the factory into battle. Excellent work on both tanks.....Brick On ! Quote

Excellent work on both tanks.....Brick On ! Funny you should say that as I'm actually working on a MOC where the T-34 really goes straight out in to battle from the Stalingrad Tractor Factory :D It's not finished yet though Quote
Hollander Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 (edited) Me gusta. Those are some very sweet tanks you have there; and both the Panther and T34 are amongst my personal favorites. And can the hatch of the Panther actually rotate? As for the constructive criticism, you might try to make the back of the Panther more connect to the rest of the hull. I can imagine it's a tough job as its back is in a different angle, but it would be a great improvement. It would be great to see more tanks of yours in the future. I am not a conformist; keep brickin'! Edited July 15, 2012 by Hollander Quote

I am not a conformist; keep brickin'! Thanks. The hatch can't rotate, so if I want a minifig up top I need to place the hatch on a different stud (I hope what I write is understandable, english is not my first language). As for the back of the Panther, I agree with you and I'll probably try to make it look better. I'm thinking of building a tank that can fight my T-34 in Stalingrad, any suggestions of what tank (or tank destroyer)that would fit well there? I'm think of maybe building a StuG III but I'm happy to take suggestions. Quote
stej123 Posted July 27, 2012 Author Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) I have rebuilt the turret of the T-34/76. It now has two hatches so that I can fit two minifigs at the top of the turret. The hatches opens seperatly so if I just want one minifig up top it works as well stej123, on Flickr Edited July 27, 2012 by stej123 Quote
Rijkvv Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 Wow, three well-built tanks! For me, the big-scale T-34 is favourite. Quote
stej123 Posted July 29, 2012 Author Posted July 29, 2012 Here's my newest creation, the german tank destroyer Sturmgeschütz III (StuG III) stej123, on Flickr Quote
Lightning Dragon Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 (edited) Great MOCs! How long does it take for you to make each tank??? My favorite is the Panther.The design and camo are excellent! Edited July 29, 2012 by Lightning Dragon Quote

I don't really know how long they each take to make but I know the T-34/85 and the Panther took the longest. The T-34/76 took a few hours maybe and the StuG a bit longer than that. Quote
