Description Pruskie dziala artyleryjskie (Prussian Artillery Works) wz.1917
Designed as a heavy breakthrough tank by PDA in 1916, but the construction of a prototype (Pioner 5) took another half-year, being accepted into service in May of 1917. 4 Pioner 5's were built before the full-production model was begun, the PWC 11/1 with shorter 75mm guns and an enhanced exhaust system. In November of 1917, the PWC 11/2 was conceived as a vehicle to carry a squad of soldiers in directly with the 11/1's in a breakthrough.

Has that Great War rhomboidal aesthetic without being a generic parallelogram. Very neat.

Thanks! I was actually initially inspired by the K-Wagen, and kinda rolled with it.

Looks nice, but with four 75mm apt to be a bit crowded...

Yeah, I'm thinking that myself now. Maybe remove the rear 75mm and replace it with an MG, while removing the MG to the left of the door?
