This last Christmas, i started a cool little project. Ive always thought it would be awesome to say, "I have a tank." And what do I do? Start building one of course, well the model at least. I got lucky and found like 5, 8x3 foot sheets of cardboard and I started building. It's been a lot of fun really. My plan this summer is to rebuild it out of wood and stronger material and put electric motors in it and make a functional track system. It will either be a regular tank with a turret that has a potato launcher in it, OR an anti-air tank with two air soft machine guns with extended barrels on the sides of the turret and I'll even add a spinning radar dish. I love the thought of it being done, I feel I can pull it off.
Here's some pics of the cardboard model

This is the first version I did, it has a single main gun

Then I had the idea to redesign the turret to look like either a Flakpz 1 Gepard (which is the design I'm leaning towards because the guns look better) or a ZPRK 2S6 Tunguska.
The turret will have two side guns ( I'll put a pic of a real Gepard to show what the guns will look like) that will be airsoft machine guns
