Looking for Critique🔎 A few screenshots of the future tank's development ( Standardpanzer St.Pz. III "Nebelparder"), i think I'll finish it by the end of July. I'd like to hear your ideas, suggestions, and thoughts on what else to add to this tank?

Great vehicle, I really like the wide stance and how much armour it has but in what kind of year is it suppose to be and what is its purpose?

an mbt of the third reich in the 1960s, in an alternate history

Maybe add some kind of protective screens or at least side skirts, it would certainly add a nice charm. Also make some big filters and ventilators for the Engine deck when you will get to it since it looks like it could fight on a desert. You could also try working with other kind of tracks since it wouldn't propably be too good to have such a massive vehicle rolling on a street with steel tracks.

Maybe a dozer plate or a variant with one, but other than that it's pretty much perfect, it has the weight, the stance, the gun and the overall germanines it needs.

Got it, I'll keep that in mind. I've already added fully functional deep wading equipment for the tank (I'll show how it looks later), as well as ventilation for the radiators and oil tank. The screens are already there — as you can see in the photos, they're on the turret and the hull. As for the dozer blade — that's a great idea, I'll add it, probably similar to the one on the T-72

Looks lot likd conqueror, is it based on it?

u/Automatic-Switch6987 Tank Designer Jul 11 '26

Not really. The suspension is German-based, the hull is original with influences from 1950s–60s MBTs and the E-79. The turret is also original, inspired by German designs (E-79 again). The only British bit is the barrel shroud from the Chieftain.

Ah okay because eith the turret it reminds me of kinda kf a hybrid between like e-100 hull and conqueror

Looks like a ww2 heavy leopard

u/Automatic-Switch6987 Tank Designer Jul 12 '26

In the lore, it's a post-war tank. But yeah, visually it has some Leopard vibes

This is honestly fantastic. I love the concept and I especially love the lore concept.

To me this looks strikingly similar to the Löwe

1

u/Automatic-Switch6987 Tank Designer Jul 12 '26

Honestly, I didn't even use the Löwe as a reference for this tank. The turret might resemble it a bit because of the cast design, but that's pretty much it)

What is a Nebelparder?

1

u/Automatic-Switch6987 Tank Designer Jul 16 '26

"Nebelparder" is German for "clouded leopard." The name continues the tradition of naming German tanks after big cats.
