So I decided that I wanted to create another armoured vehicle. So in addition to my (now kinda obsolete) LAV, I made a tank with a LOT of composite armour, hence the class designation "Heavy Main Battle Tank".

  I took heavy inspiration from one of yours actually, I had no clue how to make a functional shell, and reversed engineered a few, including one from your Leopard wave post. But heavily modified it to my needs. I think the only real remainder of yours is the width of the shell @Thelastspartan

  You guys making me want to measure it actually made me have a big brain moment, i measured the barrel and low and behold, IT IS VERY CLOSE TO BEING 60 calibers in LENGTH (i didnt actually measure it when i said it had an L60 hahahaha)

  So, using my dummy human, and average human height, i have estimated that the hull is around 2.475m tall, and the turret being 1.60m tall, this makes the tank's estimated height to be 4.125m. This is actually lower than a Leopard 2A4, which stands at 5.27m in height. To me, the reason it looks so big, is because you can see half of the (massive) roadwheels.

  Im actually thinking of adding a person outside the vehicle scaled for the chairs, to give a "banana" for scale
