1/16 T-35 (Build)

While I set up my new CR10 printer I set my D4x printing Dean_Rauch's T-35 off Thingiverse-

I used up some unfinished reels of PLA  that I had lying around so it's a bit messy-

(some of the detail parts are in resin)




Hull joined together

Hull top-

This was going to be a quick print and build but then I decided to redo the wheels and suspension

Test fitting the side armour brackets and front wheel assemblies. 

 

Printed out a turret ring for the main turret-

Made bushes for the idle wheels and return rollers-

Drive sprocket has 3 small magnets behind the holes that match the magnets in the cover

 

Now I can easily get the cover off, if I need to.

Running gear done

120+ track links on each side (using cut down HL Tiger pins). I printed the tracks in resin, not sure how long they'll last.

All done-

Testing out the running gear-

A bit bouncy over an obstacle but a bit of added weight will stop that.

Made some bolts for the towing hoops-

Almost done-

 

Undercoated-
