      Looks promising, but it's difficult to really get a feel for it without more views. Also, I wonder about the advisability of an open cockpit for a tank.

          Looks like a mean mechanical sphynx. Still missing a few parts - it would be highly advisable to have a gun fitted to it πŸ˜„
          Nice work πŸ‘

                I'm curious - what is the function of the front "paws" ,other than looking like a beast's paws? I notice they can be swiveled, but I can't figure out what they do.

                  This is from the old cartoon, Thundercats. Practicality? πŸ˜†

                    Here is an image of the animated version. Your model isn't a bad job, kudos for doing it.

                      Indeed, Thundercats and practical don't mix too well πŸ˜‰

                      I did a quick render with iRender nXt:
