Zoom in

US Stuart light tank is an iconic tank of WW2. It had a crew of four and its main gun was a 37mm it also had a browning 30 cal. on the turret and a Thompson submachine gun in the haul as well as a spot light and 2 hatches. THis tank was power by 2 Cadillac Flathead V8, Series 42, 110 horsepower each and could go 100 miles on a full tank without refueling and had a top speed of 36 mph and its combat whieght was 17 tons. This is my very first tank and cant say how many hours i put into this tank the best part is it has an interior and can fit 2 minifigs. My goal was to recreat this tank to look as real as posible and think i did a really good job on the tank also i cant thank justsuper9productions for the instructions on how to make the turret without them this moc would look like crap thanks. My next tank moc will be a german luchs lynch light tank and if all goes well then i will start my SHERMAN TANK!!!!!!!!! FEEL FREE TO COMMENT AND AND LEAVE TIPS

you should make the whoile thing a tad lower, and level the tracks so the tank isn't leaning foward.

Pretty nice, but its just way too high, also you could use smaller front wheels.

Quoting Jackal Kimneko My number one favorite of WW2, the M5 Stuart. Also the M8 mortor carrage, but I haven't seem one of those yet. Very nice job. Even correct on the tread wheels. Very nice.

Quoting Matt Gutierrez Thanks for commenting on my tank! This is an amazing Stuart. The only problems are the sloping of the tank (seems to bow forward) and the large back section. Other than that, this is spot on. Well done!

well i admit the tank does lean a bit foward but the back of the tank is like that on the real M5
