Pretty cool, looks like you kit bashed a Pz.III with the suspension of an M24, again, pretty cool.Hello long time reader, first time poster. I fell in love with this book series even with all its flaws and because I love tanks or barrels I love theorizing what they looked like. So I thought I’d throw in my take on the “Custer” barrel both mark 2 and 2.5. Because the US barrel mark 1 is more of the A7V, I took that as a sigh that instead of following the British and French design in OTL that the US took after German design in TL-191. Furthermore I’ve read that turtledove himself has said that the US barrel was akin to the panzer 3.
So I’ve tried to kitbash something together in 1/35 model kits to resemble an American Panzer 3. Outside of the 2.5 turret, which I was shooting for something a little more… foreign looking, I’m happy with the results.
