Cobra can now roll out with a turret attached to their HISS tanks. With twin gatling cannons and optional radar guidance system, no helicopter, low flying jet or infantryman will be safe from Cobra's fangs. This was designed in 3d and then printed on my bambu pla printer. I made a few extras for my Etsy store. Thanks for looking.

It's a bold choice to not make it 100% mesh with the existing HISS tank aesthetics.
Instead of the HISS' smaller rivet lines, you chose monster-sized bolts. The subtle curving of the HISS' nose isn't mimicked, but instead the angles on the turret are created with flat planes. Even the panels on the turret look like their added to an existing hull, not just the hull itself. All of these things add up to create a feel of sturdier and newer technology being shoehorned (not meant in a pejorative way) onto an existing aging platform. Fantastic work. |

This is awesome. If you can make a version that fits on the DTC HISS I'll absolutely buy 2. I've been looking for something like this to replace the giant cup of a seat in the back of those.
Would also buy one for the Haslab classified Hiss that I'm still hoping to convert for 4" figures (ever since nonnef cancelled their conversion kit).
