I think it looks good!
I can't wait to unleash 30mm autocannons on the enemy!

Needs more turret and weapons detail, IMO.

Old Bear leaked that they are 8xd6 in one of his forum posts. That's just brutal.

The 30mm needs to have more detail and the protective plate for the missiles needs to be smaller, or the missiles need to be larger. The overall model needs more detail in the sensors, the track height needs too be higher, and the hull needs to be higher in silloette.

Looks good to me |

That looks really good to me. Its probably about the closest you're gonna get with a cheaply produced plastic model of an actual tank in miniature. Its meant to play a game with, not meant to be a perfect metal miniature replica.

Agreed. I dont care for the tank design, but the model looks almost spot on.

I just like a bit more detail in my models. They can do a better job in the molding.

Indeed it is, since were talking 30mm, maybe there will be some penalty to armor as well?
The Tunguska just hit my "must-have" list

I'd pick that up just for fun. But I think the radar dish on the front is a little small. Funny thing is I think China produces and uses this.
