Description And another update - after some discussions I admit that the Demo does need more size compared to a "todays" MBT - simple today we don't mount 2x 185mm binary propellant cannons on our tanks.
I found a good reference in the web - a picture of the miniature of a Baneblade next to a Guerteltier. both had almost the same length. 
And the Baneblade (yes w40k) is listened somewhere with a length of 13.5m. .... so an additional roadwheel and a littlebit upscaling - evoila the new Demo has a total length of ~10m. 

I added my "WIP" of the Hetzer Wheeled Assault Gun ... and as you see the Schreck will become a WIP again in the next future.

Have fun, keep you updated.

Perhaps the gunner and commander are in special 'pods' like they had on the MBT-70 for the driver?  A small, self contained fighting space where they have their equipment, sure its gonna be cramped as all hell and uncomfortable but I doubt comfort is high on the list.

sure thing comfort is for others. but afaik the demo is known to be dangerous for its crew. also the video about the t72 was enlightend when it comes to cramped space

Was it the T-72 or the T-64 who's autoloader had a nasty habit of trying to feed the gunner's arm into the breech.  I know that the Soviets had a fair bit of trouble with the autoloaders on their tanks, mainly due to a lack of crew training.  And crew comfort in a T-72?  What's that
