      Great stuff, really ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘
      Since you are putting so much effort in creating a realistic, detailed model, and since youยดve already "fixed few inaccurate stuff " I would suggest using hex bolts on the sprocket wheel, and some "tapering" on the track link ends, because they look too squary IMHO. The same goes to the central guide tooth.
      As seen on King Tiger at Bovington Tank Museum in the UK - http://tanksandthings.niceboard.net/trusty-rusty-f14/king-tiger-104-walkaround-bovington-t751.htm
      I hope you wonยดt mind my little suggestion.

        Mate, your model is looking good already, I just thought it would be a pity not to take some extra care of such details if you are after a realistic model.
        But if it is polycount thatยดs giving you a headache, maybe reducing the arc/circle segment number ( in addition to extensive use of components ) to an acceptable level would be a good idea, especially on the parts that are not-so-visible.
        Once again, great stuff. Looking forward to updates!

                        LOL ๐Ÿ˜„ It seems I model my models too late... again. ๐Ÿ˜„ But I can say that I didnt use any plugins to make it. Only circle, arc, scale and pencil tool ๐Ÿ˜›

                        Here is some wireframe shots...

                        Can I show my complete newbieness here and ask - that helmet was modelled in Sketchup?

                        If so then WOW how on earth did you do that using only the tools you mentioned? I don't suppose you'd be willing to show some steps on how it was done would you.

                        Amazing work you have here.

                        Best wishes,

                          LOL
                          There is nothing hard about it actually it just takes some time. It took me 2 days to get that far and im willing to show u how i did it but i have to make small video because my english is not that good to explain everything.
                          I actually also used push/pull, follow me and rotate tool. LOL

                          Trust me your English is very very good. As far as I'm concerned you have better English than a lot of people in this country who seem more to grunt nowadays than actually say words ๐Ÿ˜‰

                          Would be great to see a video when you get the chance though, that's very much appreciated.

                          Best wishes,

                                    You took care virtually of everything - weld lines, MG...then those hex bolts ๐Ÿ˜‰ ... Amazing amount of details!
                                    I am curious about those wire meshes on the rear deck - how did you make them?
                                    Keep up the good work!

                                      If u compare the places where the 2 pieces of armor meet each other LOL with a real photo u can see that my model doesnt have welds yet i still need to figure out how to make nice welds.

                                      Hehe, ooops, I can see that it have no weld seams, what I really had in mind was armor plating and that toothed interlocking.
                                      Modeling weld seams would certainly add another dimension of realism to your tank - I just hope SU can handle all that stuff.

                                            You're using v-ray right? the .visopt file is the settings of your v-ray render. In the options popout, there's a 'save' button that will generate the .visopt file.
