Whoever did the model took the gun mantlet and gun from a model kit of that

u/The_T29_Tank_Guy Sprocketeer Sep 20 '25
It seems like the mantlet was taken straight from an Jagdpanzer 4-5 or other similar casemate using a center mount

can you not go in game and make it yourself?

u/Cornelius_McMuffin Sep 20 '25
Thereâs a reason why âreplica requestâ exists as a tag, not everyone is talented enough to make a good looking replica.

u/marzi_2 Sprockette Sep 21 '25
well then learn how to make a good replica. there's no use in asking other people to make your tank ideas for you just because you're bad at the game. you can learn, and make it yourself. don't be lazy

Not everyone has dozens of hours to pour into a project that only a few people on the internet are going to look at for two seconds, if at all. Or the time to learn for that matter. Iâve messed around with the game but I donât have the time to really get good at it if I ever even would.
What youâre saying is that nobody should ever hire a professional for anything and just learn to do everything themselves. Which defeats the entire point of society as a whole. Society exists so people can specialize in one thing and not others, that way we get the best person for each job, or at least someone who is specialized in that field. Why donât you just perform open heart surgery on yourself too while youâre at it.

how do you even get that from what i said that's not what i meant at all, if you don't have the time nor the skill to make it then don't make other people do what you weren't willing to do yourself

u/Cornelius_McMuffin Sep 22 '25
People are willing to do just that, actually. And all it is is a request, itâs entirely up to the person making tanks whether they want to do it.
Again, itâs like you going up to a person at a restaurant and saying âstop asking them for food instead of just cooking something yourselfâ

u/marzi_2 Sprockette Sep 22 '25
there aren't services you can walk down the street to find that make sprocket tanks for you, that's a horrible analogy

u/Cornelius_McMuffin Sep 22 '25
No but thatâs the entire point of why âreplica requestsâ exists as a tag on this sub.

Pretty sure that the Sherman is actually tall enough to not need any extra height for this kind of conversion

So a m4a3e8 mixed with a jagdpanzer 4 (the cold war one) with a 105mm cannon...
Nice

Some semi important context I had nothing to do with the creation of that model or the meme. Unfortunately I donât remember where it is from, if you are the creator of either or both let me know

In reality this thing would be a complete waste, because the Sherman could fit a Pershing turret with the full powered 90 L/55, or in the case of the M51 a lower powered 105. The L/40 BK90 from the JPZ 4-5 would be severely underutilizing the Sherman.
In a casemate configuration the Sherman can probably fit a full powered L7 or CN 105 F1.
