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
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.
@Springbok ill get you reference pics for a origional legit bush hat
Looks a bit different to that one
This bushhat unissued one. Could be a later version though if it's not exactly the same as what was worn from 1966-1989 @Kooijpolloi
If you want the cover that comes over the helmet I have one
