Just another 'What would you..' thread..

I’d like to see an M1 or Leopard in zimmerite…[:D]

Please add your own anachronismes, please…

How about a sherman with a new twist of a modified M1Abrams turret or something else on it, and maybe a modern hedg/ mine clearing devise on the front ( all in matt black with a futuristic scene )

A Sherman with reactive armor.

A VVSS Tiger and a torsion bar Sherman.

Usually I just do aircraft, but having done hypothetical things with that subject, I suppose for armor I’d probably do something like puting wood planks on the sides of something like a Challenger or Merkava sort of like some of those pictures you see of Shermans with wood planks on their sides.

Maybe a WWI British tank with ERA bricks on it.

For a real anachronism, how about a horse drawn Abrams? How many heavy horses for that do you figure? :slight_smile:

That would be a lot of horses!

Now that you mention it. I have a friend in a model club that was putting a T34 turret on a Sherman, that was sometime ago. Next time I see him I’ll have to ask him what happened to it.

If I had to design one, I’d do something like this.

Maybe it’s just me, but I think that it could take a Sherman and a Tiger at the same time. Maybe even a Merkava. Abrams would be a stretch, though.

Warhammer just has soom seriously silly, cool stuff…

Almost as many guns as a Russian T-35 Heavy Tank…but probably more useful.[;)]

How about a Scorpion or Saladin turret on a M113? Ooops, I think we Aussies did that[:p]

happy modelling

I’d like to see a Leopard painted in the late WW2 ambush pattern. Or a T-55 with an Abrams turret mounted on top.

Hmmmm…
Ok: how about some kinda nutty field mod with a German 88 installed in a Sherman? Any kind of Sherman would do.

Remember, I said “some kinda.” I have no idea how anybody could get an 88 in a Sherman.

But it’d be cool, no?

Heck, the Israelis got that loooong French 105 in a Sherman, so why not an 88?

how about one of those ww2 polish tankettes with a TOW on it?

A Panther hull with side shields like a Marder or Hummel with an 88mm gun. or an Elefant casemate with a Tiger II hull and wheels.

Thinking about Redleg’s Sherman with the M1 turret… I’ve tried this…

Want a giggle? Pull an M1 and Sherman off the shelf, take the M1’s turret off and put the Sherman turret in its place… If you can keep it from falling into the hull! The M1 turret is almost the size of the Sherman hull!
A “Humvee” with full tracks (I’ve seen them with 4 tracks… one in place of each wheel. Where’s my camera when I need it!?)

Ron.

Maybe it’s just me, but I think it is a Sherman and a Tiger at the same time!! LOL [:D]

Put a 128mm gun on a King Tiger, lengthen the turret by half. Might be a good project…the Tiger III

That’ sounds pretty cool!
I’ve seen plans for a Tiger II with a 105mm gun in the turret. The turret was unchanged, however.

How about a more Jagdpanther-ish Jagdtiger? That is, a Jagdtiger with a fully sloped hull front.
I suppose at first glance, it would look just like a Jagdpanther, though.

Neat idea J-Hulk, but might the 128mm tip it forward? LOL

I like the thought of a Tiger III. [8D]

OK, OK, how about a Sturmtiger with the big mortar replaced with a 128mm cannon? I reckon you’d have to rename it Jagdtiger I.

Or how about an M1A2 in solid OD with some of those big retro white stars in the white hoops?

Hmmm…what else would be interesting…
