A7V Malcador Defender

This is a remix of m_bergman's A7V tank included in "1-200 WWI tanks and vehicles" and Mkhand_Industries' "Epic Scale Malcador Defender v2". This is intended to be used as a proxy for a Malcador Defender and is currently scaled for Epic 40k. If you would like to scale it appropriately for use in 28mm Warhammer 40k (which is what I will be doing) I recommend up-scaling the model by 487.8%. I hope you all enjoy the model and please share any pictures if you print it!

Malcador Defender Lore:

The Malcador 'Defender' is one of the most unusual, and arguably effective, of the Malcador variants and is more common than the original design. Its limited-traverse turret embrasure has been entirely refitted with five Heavy Bolters providing complete 360° coverage around the tank, while the Demolisher Cannon and sponson weapons are maintained. Transforming its role into that of a breakthrough tank, the Malcador 'Defender' is a mobile fortress well-suited to close-quarters combat during urban and trench warfare, with the Demolisher used against enemy strongpoints and fortifications. The additional weaponry does require a larger crew, with eight troopers crammed into the tight, sweltering hull, and forces the commander to double as a heavy bolter gunner. That the tank seldom operates far from resupply or support helps mitigates some of the original design's failings.
