I'm not too enthusiastic about making a crane at the back because I think it's ugly and will interfere with access to the opening to carry troops.

So, designing everything from scratch would be rather time consuming, so I decided to use about 50% of parts made by other artists and modify them and then create the missing parts.

In the Steps tab, Different steps of my work.
 
In the end, this does not correspond 100% to the concept, but it is very close to it, last updates in the Last tab.
 
There are still a few details to deal with and especially the cutting of parts and connection systems (pins, rods, assemblies...) to be able to do a 3D printing and check that everything is well combined.
 
So, everything was going well until now with my Lenovo L340 i5/8GB/GTX 1050 3GB laptop, but as I keep adding elements, it's getting slow, sometimes I have to wait several minutes for some changes.
I just ordered 16GB of RAM, I hope it will be enough, but anyway I can't do better without changing my machine and I don't have the means for that.
 
===================
 
 
My sculpture is done.
 
Now, it only remains to cut the parts and the "stemming" (allowing the gluing after printing) to be able to print in 3D.
 
Then to prepare the printing by adding supports.
 
After doing some "crash tests", I could check if some modifications are to be done and share the files.
 
PS.:
 
. not too happy with the roof which is not too symmetrical in the length but I would see how it comes out in the printing.
 
Tested, it's online : [https://www.cgtrader.com/free-3d-print-models/games-toys/board-games/safe-deposit-tank-tank-transport-de-fonds Files on Cgtrader]
 
. Obligation to glue the front legs under a 50mm base to balance the weight of the back part, or plan to use ballast under the base.
 
. I've also made a version that can fit on a 40mm base that's made from a single block by filling the inside. To make this version, I had to increase the size of the canon and the pipes so that they wouldn't break during printing. This is a resin print version, I can provide the file on request (250MB), please contact me to obtain it.
