Ding. Ding. Ding. We have a winner. The Semovente is the Ferrari of the tank destroyer world, with classic Italian lines and fine attention to details (far too many of them). The vehicle was so well made that the Germans took all of them and put them into service in the German Army (which wasn't always the fate for Italian armed vehicles). It's sports car like stance should allow it to hug corners as it prowls the village streets and country-side lanes of the battlefield. The General's Wife will ride in style during 2013. Here's a glamor shot of one of the four suspension assemblies. Each assembly consists of 95 separate parts, including 6 welded assemblies (which consist of 25 separate pieces). I actually "simplified" the design a little for modeling purposes. Photo courtesy of J.P. Visions from their soon-to-be-released "Tanks of The R/C World" 2013 calendar.
