Description
To me this is the most esthetically pleasing tank. I had a model of this tank when I was a kid and I loved that model. Everything about the proportions, length and shape is just right, those fuel barrels at the back are my favorite feature.
- Print profile is ready to print, no adjustments are needed.
- Hull is best to print upright for highest quality, turret needs to be printed laid down for higher strength.
- Turret must be removed from the printer plate with delicacy otherwise it is easy to break it even if printed horizontally.
- The turret can be rotated 360 degrees.
- Use PLA or PETG, mine was printed with Filament PM's Froggy Gold PETG.
- Hull size: 69 x 36 x 20 mm (2.7 x 1.4 x 0.8 in)
- Turret size: 74 x 30 x 22 mm (2.9 x 1.2 x 0.9 in)
