Fresh off the printer in 1:100 scale (15mm) is another in the series of Pointless Stupid Tanks No Wargamer Really Needs, the British TOG-II.
This is the beast's final form, mounting a 17 pounder in a turret quite similar to that of the Cruiser Mk.VII Challenger. It never went into service; by the time it was completed there were other, better tanks available to do the job. Its main function seems to have been to keep a bunch of crusty old WW1 tank designers out of everyone else's hair.
The Tank Museum at Bovington have an example, but I don't believe it runs at all.
Being able to print this sort of thing for a few cents is great. The TOG-II is already available commercially in 15mm from elsewhere, Battlefront make one for about a bajillion monies. However, it's such a stupid thing and so generally useless in a wargaming context that I'd never spend those bajillion monies on it. Getting it for nothing more than a few cents worth of plastic and electricity and some time makes it much more worth while.
Looks pretty good. How much would it cost for you to print out another one and mail it to me in Montreal Canada? I want to blow someone's mind.
ReplyDeletesame how much is it and can you deliver it to europe
ReplyDeleteI don't do printing for sale, just for myself. If I remember correctly the model came from TigerAce1945 on Thingiverse.
