Auto Credit Based on Avro683Lancaster's Medium Tank, M3 Lee
The Medium Tank, M3, named Lee in British service was an WWII medium tank design developed by the US Army as an interim design, replacing the M2 medium tanks, before the introduction of the M4 Sherman. The M3 Lee had a 75mm gun in a sponson on the side, and a 37mm gun in an offset turret, and a riveted construction, all unfavourable characteristics, which led to the tank unable to take a hull-down position.
This build was supposed to have a track system and accurate suspension for the road wheels, however various issues stopped that from going ahead and stagnated work for four months.

I hate this M3 Lee in World of Tanks, well its twin the Grant but i still hated it
This detail here is pretty freaking awesome! Great job. And that's coming from someone who can't stand the M3.
Very nice I love the rivets
@Tang0five probably half a month and eleven pages of an A3 sketchbook, going from 72 parts up to 934 parts and back down to 563 parts
Don’t want to know how long it took getting all those rivets in place! Grand job well done!
@Avro683Lancaster Cheers
