adumb 0 Posted June 2, 2013 I wonder when Gurdy will show his M1 model in more advanced development stage, from the early work I seen, it is very promising. I too, wonder! What I have been able to see, It's going to be one hell of a model when done. It's coming... just slow. :rolleyes: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AlexVestin 24 Posted June 2, 2013 That's a pretty nice set wheels! Hood detail looks spot on so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damian90 697 Posted June 4, 2013 I too, wonder! What I have been able to see, It's going to be one hell of a model when done. Yeah, especially after materials I provided to Gurdy. Besides this we discussed a special bonus, after the initial and most needed variants will be finished, so hopefully Gurdy will be able to model what I suggested and discussed with him.

gurdy 479 Posted July 3, 2013 (edited) Bump! Time for some Abrams... well, the M1A1 AIM, anyway! Still a little bit of model work on the base to go (notably the lack of the M240 mount, which is delayed until I create a M240). Click here for a larger look! (or click here if you want your internet to crash) Coming soon to a forum near you: *Attachments--rollers and two plows! *Tusk I set *M1 Panther II Edited July 3, 2013 by Gurdy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damian90 697 Posted July 4, 2013 (edited) M1A1AIM model is really great looking, great work Gurdy, hopefully my materials were really helpfull. :) BTW, one suggestion, are the smoke dischargers at the proper angle? I mean, shouldn't they face towards vehicle front, on screenshot they look to be more angled towards sides. Edited July 4, 2013 by Damian90 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yamajin82 10 Posted July 8, 2013 very excited about the work you are doing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gurdy 479 Posted July 8, 2013 It's that time again! Some things aren't shown here like USMC smoke dischargers, the older sprocket retaining rings, and the commander's thermal, but they're around! The only other notable thing is the addition of a the non-standard ballistic glass/shield that turn up in Jeff DeRosa's M1A1 resource. This probably won't be on the standard version of the model, but I'll have to put some thought into it. That said, let's get to business: Click here for the medium, and here for large.

astast 12 Posted July 8, 2013 Wow amazing never realized that the tusk had a 50 on it's main cannon but it looks really badass :) Also will you guys be making sf versions of your humvees? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damian90 697 Posted July 8, 2013 never realized that the tusk had a 50 on it's main cannon but it looks really badass It is called AS/AMM (Anti Sniper/Anti Material Mount), it serves as a second, heavy calliber coax. It's history is interesting, such device was designed first in Israel I believe, as a training device for tank gunners (12,7x99mm rounds are cheaper than 105mm and 120mm ones ;)), later it proved to be usefull to engage targets too small for main gun and not worthy it's ammunition, but too good protected for standard 7,62x51mm rounds of the coaxial machine gun. Americans adopted this solution after their initial experiences in Iraq. What is however worthy to note, is that M1 tank, from the beggining was designed with different armaments installation, for example the Tank Commander cupola CWS can have besides 12,7mm M2 HMG installed, also can have installed a 7,62mm M240 MG or (at least during prototype stage such armament was considered) it can be armed with 40mm Mk19 GMG. Tough I seen only M2 and M240 installed. In theory loaders station can also have a different armament than M240. Recently USMC made order for ILWS system, which replace it's standard M240 skid mount, to a M240 installed on a small RWS station operated by the loader. So M1 can have a very impressive variety of small arms weapon systems installed on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
