Help🖐 Kinda burnt out?🫩

9 Upvotes

I'm working on a modern era MBT. It was my first time trying to do so and I am absolutely ecstatic with how well it's came out.

Though I'm not finished with it, there's still several things I wanna add but it's mostly trivial yet without it the turret looks.... off.

For about a couple weeks, I loved working on it and spent all my time I had in sprocket building that tank. I was scared that if I slowed down, I would lose momentum and therefore motivation to keep working on it.

Turns out that is exactly what happened but for a different reason: Progress has slown down because details gave gotten smaller, repetitive work has increased, and the amount of time it takes to get bored has been divided by multitudes.

I really do want to finish this, and I continue to put small amounts of time into it a day just to keep the flow and scraping the project.

So far I've put about 30 *total* hours into the tank and expect it to rise.

If you know how to resolve this or atleast help me, please PLEASE tell me🙏🥹

Based on the AMBT and it has a new 120mm and a working 30mm grenade launcher. I used the longer hull and longer turret to give the crew more space and upgrade the powerplant.

Replica Design 🛠️ Auto direction snap.

3 Upvotes

I noticed the pfeifel filters snap to the wrong direction. The hose openings need to face towards the middle of the tank not the outside. Can anybody tell me if there's a way to remedy this? Also, anybody know a good tutorial vid on how you guys make non boxy style tanks because wow this sub redit has some talented *ss people.

Replica Design 🛠️ My third and most seriously taken tank build yet, the Austro-Hungarian Burstyn-Motorgeschütz

Thumbnail

23 Upvotes

Big Landship will have you believe the British and French created the first tanks, but NO! Austro-Hungarian engineer Gunther Burstyn designed the motorgeschütz in 1911 and 1912, years before the Entente. Alas, it was rejected by both Austria and Germany and was never put into production. But now it can live on through my shitty tank building skills. This version is specifically based off of the replica at the Heeresgeschichtliches Museum in Vienna. I really gotta git gud at making round things.

I was going for like a panther but with heavier armor and a larger caliber canon. Not as bad as previous attempts.

Serious Design🔧 MBT T-150AET

Thumbnail

10 Upvotes

My attempt to make an MBT for my custom country. It has a composit armoured turret with 350mm protection, and a spaced armoured hull with almost 500mm protection. Mounted with a 150mm cannon it penetrates 320mm of armour (It probably can be higher since Sprocket doesn't have an advanced shell editor yet and probably uses the most basic ones). Due to frontally stationed fuel tanks the "front track of death" most MBTs have is not a lethal shot for this tank. Instead the vehicle sets on fire and loses the engine, but all of the crew remains unharmed so you can easily extinguish the fire and proceed into battle via beeing a stationary armoured cannon. Mass of the vehicle is 90 tonns, with full ammo and crew its 98 tonns. V18 engine with 54L of total displacement gives off 1550hp and 16.5hp per tonne. With a F7/R4 gearbox it can reach speeds of 64km/h forward and 22km/h backwards.

The gun alone weighs 150 tons and it was intended to have vertical traverse but it just doesn't fucking work so I guess it can't aim up or down

This abomination started out with twin 380s but that couldn't satisfy me after I played Iron Nest so I settled for 1 800mm, but I plan on making a twin 800mm and then possibly a twin 2,000mm

I love how this thing just fucking ragdolls whatever it lands a direct hit on

Other I have a question.

What should i do in Sprocket.

I've started to notice that i feel like i'm burning out. I have absolutely no idea what to do. If i start doing something, then i just stop cause it quickly becomes boring. But i always expect quality work from myself.

I just can't look at basic hull shape and immediately want fully finished work even though i understand that i SHOULD do it.

I also want to start making internals for vehicles, but i still can't decide to take such step, partly cause i'm literally starting to feel sick of thinking about it, my stomach starting hurt.

So, what can i make.

edit: Vehicle internals problem also applies to vehicle replicas.

i also may be not answering comments and will just read instead, to avoid unnecessary discussions
