Was used in the troubles in the early 90s

But after all the Border War stuff is done I'd like to include the SANDF but that's a long way from now and not certain

Yeah i get that

Would be interesting to see how the SANDF faction would hold up against the other vanilla Squad factions

hell yea. But you should give our guys aids just to make it more real

Eh lets steer clear from that stuff Boomninja 😉 I'm so, so tired of the controversial kak we talk about online between us Saffas.

ah oky

I understand some of it is legitimate but this is a channel for fun not political discussion 😛

oh im not political

Lekker ✌🏻

Another day, another update.

looks awesome cant wait to see it when its all done and ready for use.

Last piece added for the session. Added the spare wheel branch protectors or whatever they are. I assume they're there to protect the rear spare tires from being ripped off.

Looks amazing boet

Awesome man! This is really coming a long nicely :)

I remodeled this thing so many times last night it's not funny 😪 anyway I reckon this version will work out. As I've changed the blueprint as the other one just wasn't working well for me.

I'm modeling this in a different method to the Buffel and Casspir. With the Eland I have separated the floor, roof and walls as individual parts that will then be joined once I am happy with the general shape of the hull.

Awesome.. That gun is gonna be awsome to use

That's the 60mm mortar version

90mm variant 😉

Wow Niceeeee

Capable of taking on enemy T-34'85 and T-55 tanks

Are gou gonna do the 90mm too

Albeit the latter needs carefully placed shots

Ja 90mm as well as it was the most common Eland variant

Sweet

Only real difference between the two is the turret and cannon

The hull itself is the same. Much like the Ratel 20 and 90 having different turrets as the only different more or less.

Okay.... Phew finally some flipping progress on the Eland.

You don't want to know how many times I've modeled and remodeled the hull 😬 It's proving quite a tricky thing to tackle due to it's funky shapes.

Anyway I'm happy with the way the hull is shaping up now. Should start looking pretty cool by tomorrow.

I'm trying to get as many vehicles in the work in progress pipeline so I can pump them out quickly one after the other when Modding 2.0 comes out. Of course that is being optimistic!

Playing around with the sculpting in blender seeing what kind of results I can get with the SADF Bush hat as a test.

Will tackle this properly later on though when the time comes to sculpt the uniforms.
