Sheridan Test Article

In 1979 the United States and West Germany co-developed an experimental directed energy weapon for the anti-armour role. One of their prototypes was mounted in a Sheridan tank and trials were conducted in West Germany. In 1983 the United States withdrew from the project, and without sufficient funding to continue research alone, the West German Army placed the prototypes in storage.
The vehicle lay in an army base until November 1984 when the ultra left militant group Red Army Faction raided the armoury for weapons and found it.

I didn't use as much Solidworks as my last project, due to the nature of the forms I needed to model for this one. 3ds Max was my workhorse application, along with Solidworks, Zbrush, Substance Painter and Photoshop.

These renders are slightly updated with some of the geometry optimised, and rendered with GI in Marmoset Toolbag 4. Unfortunately I've lost some of the source files in the years since I first completed this project so wasn't able to do as much of a make-over as I wanted in the time I had available.
