GEV Tank

Nice Tank!

1) Rear jets/exhausts for thrust

2) The turret extents over the place where the 
hull bends at the front.... thus creating a place 
for air to catch and upthrust (smaller turret 
would solve). Worse, this represents a shot trap 
for round ricocheting off the sloped front 
armour! This is not so good....

3) fantastic work. Wonder if we could get a 
moulding of it when it is done? (like in resin, for 
mass production?)

4)I'd have considered inclining the intakes on 
the sides and louvering them to give some 
chance to deflect incoming rounds. 

It's a pretty good crack though. I'd avoid a lot 
of surface clutter because a high speed GEV will 
want as flat a hull as possible... no rivets. Panel 
lines might be okay, and any "kit" should be 
stored on the back of the turret to keep the 
airflow over the hull smooth as possible - 
turbulence isn't a great thing.
