Description

Took a long break from any 2D projects, been well over a year at least. Been working a ton in Blender but everything takes a hefty chunk of time to make, so it was nice to get back into this as I can crank stuff out much faster. These are for a group worldbuilding project hat me and several other artists are working on, and are the first vehicles for my Scandinavian themed nation Dagstijara. My muse was the Strv. 39, BT-42, and SAV 20.12.48.


The Stakka K4F 'Troublemaker' was a modified version of the standard K4A, featuring a larger engine and larger turret allowing it to mount the 180mm PuA-2 howitzer. It largely served as a highly mobile SPG and direct fire vehicle, but also received HEAT rounds making it a decent lightweight tank killer. It saw limited use due to the high cost to produce the engines, and many received the standard 450hp engine from the K4A but was very successful and popular with crews and units.


The 'Super Sprinter Edition' was an experimental field modification carried out by Carsk Andel, and was a one-of-a-kind monstrosity. The entire engine compartment was redone and enlarged in order to accommodate two A4-GN turbocharged engines, putting out a combined total of 960 horse power. The transmission, tracks, and drive gear all had to be greatly strengthen to compensate for the vehicle now being able to hit 115km/h on roads. His higher-ups did not necessarily approve of the modifications due to how obnoxiously loud the tank was, but allowed it as it was a good moral booster.
