The LoLTraktor wip

I had a brief moment to make something in 3D so I whipped this up for the LoLz!

Known affectionately as the LoL Traktor to World Of Tanks fans, her official designation is the Liechttraktor or "Light(weight)Traktor" and true to it's nature, the LoLTraktor is bottom ranked, Tier-1 bundle of LoLz!

Game history has it that the Liechttraktor or LoLTraktor was the tank everyone learned the game with in WoT's early post development stage, with other light tanks being added as the game grew, but for those who want some LoLz, look no further than Nooby Tank, LoLTraktor, to supply you with laughs! It was said that experienced tankers would prowl low to mid level games with the LoLTraktor and Trololololo higher ranked tanks by being so small that the larger tanks could not shoot the LoLTraktor hiding under their larger tank's gun. The tiny LoL-T could then sneak around the larger tank and shoot holes in the weaker back sides, greatly annoying and trolling the higher tier players this way!

Whether this can still be done in post version 8.5 patch WoT and higher I cannot personally vouch for, as I cannot reliably run the game with my old comp, and my newer rebuilt one is not fast enough to meet the minimum system requirements, but I'm guessing that some LoLz can still be had with the tier-1 machines in one form or another these days.

As such this is my tribute to the LoLTraktor drivers of WoT's early days.

This is a SketchUp model in progress of Das LoLTraktor which has the main body roughly 90% complete, while the track bands and wheels are crude place holders at the moment.

It's about as scaled as I could make it without measurement references and relying upon photo references only, but should I come across some old archive info with measurements, I'll transpose them onto the model to make it even more accurate!

Also since I have yet to MarySue self-insert into Girls Und Panzer, I figured I'd start things off with the Oorai girls with mein liechttraktor. And yes LoL... I'm calling my little tank "Team Mouse" Nezumi chimu... Predictable aren't I?

And if you're wondering... Jawohl!!! Later I intend to craft a P1000 Maus for "Team Mouse" as well as a fast American heavy M103 as an alternate.
