Printed out the suspension. While functional, I found that assembly was extremely difficult and it was extremely fragile. So I'll be doubling the size of the Cromwell to a more reasonable size. The piece in the picture is around 40mm long.

Modeling a more accurate looking suspension system for the Cromwell. The TPU core for the pistons are printed first, then laid on top of an in progress print for the PLA suspension unit. PLA is used due to the fact that it shouldn't adhere to the TPU. Should look and function better.

WIP Cromwell. Still unfinished and will still take a bit of time to design all the connections. Turret is still unfinished and tracks haven't been designed yet. Suspension and cannon recoil spring may still need to be redesigned. Will need to do a ton of testing to make sure it all fits together.

Cromwell has been modeled. Now to make everything actually be printable and connect to each other.

Turret has been modeled.
Just some older screenshots of the internals. The engine was too wide and everything of course was simpler in design, mainly just there to see where I should place stuff.

WIP Cromwell. Hull is mostly done model/design wise. Still need to make it possible to assemble. Suspension looks a bit weird, but that's because it needs to be 3D printable. Which also why the internals aren't really accurate.

WIP Cromwell. It's around 150mm long. Made to be small but have all the functional details like the suspension, turret and functional tracks. Some earlier WIP pictures as well to show that all my models have very simplistic beginnings.

DMs are open! If you're interested in purchasing a Tog II, feel free to message me. Unassembled: $120, Assembled: $150. Shipping is free in the US. Will be printed in grey only. Spare parts like the MG coax and track links will be included. There will be a wait time.

Tog II V2 (light grey), Tog II V1 (dark grey). They're printed with different greys because I grabbed whatever grey I had and somehow they were different shades. For V2, one shade of grey ran out so I printed the rest with the other shade of grey. PETG, 0.4mm nozzle. 2 day print with 2 printers.

Tog II prototype V2 pics. Has the full 90 degrees bend and isn't impossible to assemble. Plus added more detail.

The tracks on the Tog II have a special track tensioning mechanism that basically helps with the excess track that allows the tank to bend properly. Torsion bar suspension was not made nor modeled as they'd be rather fragile when 3d printed.

Just a prototype. Assembly has issues, the bend was designed incorrectly leading to it only bending 20 degrees instead of 30 degrees, and some design issues leading to bad prints. Will be fixing everything for the next print.

Still very WIP, but the mechanism for the bending has been made. I'll have the tracks also bunch up in the front part of the tank to account for the stretching of the tracks. The missing details will be added back once completed.

Just some WIP pictures of the TOG 2. The first two pics were day 1, and the last two pictures were day 2. As for day 3, I mainly worked on the inner parts and the track itself. Which are still very WIP and not really shown or are hard to notice in the previous post.

Currently taking a break from working on Terrainlock and just making a cat TOG 2. I won't be modeling every single bolt because I would go insane. Modeling it first, then will work on the bending mechanisms. This took around 16 hours and is based on the War Thunder model.

A map made to show two nations face to face. Though it'd likely be better if the map were larger. But it's there just to show a concept of a map rather than something realistic. It's meant to better show off the RPG tiles made.

Some more pictures of that previous 12x12 map. Also a picture showing the gate, which does have an opening gate. Along with some more closeups of the map. The map is designed to have some tiny story with each placement of specific tiles.

A 12x12 map. This was also one of the 3D mockups that were made. This was just a design to see what I could do with a 12x12 board. It was to show a somewhat more realistic layout, though I wanted to still have the "evil" castle somewhere.

A 6x18 tile map using RPG tiles. This was one of the 3D mockups that I previously made into real life. This was designed to be like games like Mario Bros where you proceed along a path with branches where the end goal is an evil castle.

RPG Tiles have been released alongside with Thin Core Modules! This was heavily inspired by old fantasy RPG games like Final Fantasy IV and its world map. Along with games made by RPGMaker.
