Yo had me until i saw the mini gun attached to the side. I'm a sucker for symmetry and in real life that gun would be near worthless. The details and the lights are amazing. The light down on the bottom, you might want to integrate that into the Hiss's actual light bar across the front. Great work overall. A good project for a first time.

The engine would sit between the two treads, virtually at the lowest point. The cockpit is too small and the turret at the top would prevent an engine from being anywhere else. The new arctic hiss featured the front ares as a light with a re-molded light bar across the front.
Tanks keep the engine between the treads drive sprockets to spin the treads and gain traction. They are either the furthest back or furthest forward. They are the teethed "wheels." In modern engines they are the furthest back. In hiss tanks, the engine air intake would probably be in the front, just below the cockpit and the upper most spool would probably be the drive sprocket, but possibly the rear sprocket too. If the rear sprocket is the drive sprocket the engine intake and exhaust would all be in the back like a modern tank.

I'm putting this baby up for sale. Not sure how to price this, so make me a fair offer. Otherwise I'm putting up in my local toy shop on consignment.

Some very nice modifications on this.
The lights, the weathering, and the accessories work great. Gives me some great ideas for future customs.

Really good work! You should build some grills to cover those lights.
