Well, from two votes on DA and three votes from my closest Steam friends, I have vectored (as you can probably guess)... The M4A3E8 "Easy 8" Sherman!

Part 5 of my "*Pony* finds a *tank name*" orientated vectors.

A painstaking TWO days was spent on the suspension/wheels of the treads on the right. I ended up having to make up my own suspension because of the image I was trying to trace from. But in the end it was worth it because of that damn fine looking hull and turret.

Some of you may recognise the pose BolterDash is in, some of you may not...
*Cough*:iconrdthismuchplz:*Cough*

If anyone can find the actual artist of said picture, I'd be more than happy to properly credit them.

(This may be an original work but I'm uploading a PSD file anyway, just in-case I lose all the data on my HDD again. I want to have a backup on my Sta.sh in case such a thing happens).

The Firefly and E8 are both separate tanks.

The Firefly was a British modified version of the normal M4 Sherman, with a slightly modified turret so it could house the British 17 Pounder gun and its ammo, using the normal VVSS suspension system.

The Easy 8 on the other hand was based on a later model of the Sherman, the M4A3 and used an American made 76mm gun, using the latest HVSS suspension system.

The Easy 8 always was my favorite Sherman! And that's the VVSS suspension, isn't it?

It's supposed to be the HVSS suspension, but as I said I ended up having to just make up my own, which didn't turn out so well.

Darn it! I meant HVSS. Darn Soviet Airforce messing me up. Anyway, I still think you did a great job on the suspension.
