vehicle: WW2 Tankette

[BgDM]

Well. nicely done.

Some crits:

1) Way too many rivets IMO.

2) WW2 tanks were not riveted. WW! and pre-WW1 were.

Keep on going.

the model is an accurate (close anyway) scale model of a real polish tankette designated TKS.

Based on the carden lloyd MK VI tankette which served as the platform for almost all interwar light tanks, the vehicle was riveted (with the same number of rivets I have used ;) ) It is not in a way a true WW2 tank, as it was designed and built in the inter war period, but was used in ww2.

Quite a large number were manufactured, and it was used without huge success in the defence of poland against the German invasion, but suffered greviously at the hands of the superior German armour.

OK. Sorry. Going off my North American influence on these. Didn't look it up. :hmm:

ah dont be surprised.. these kinds of tanks are rather obscure and can look very unlikely! I have a taste for that which is unusual and a bit 'odd'.
