Plinko Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Here's a link to a very Kettlerian movie. http://io9.com/5637891/astonishing-new-concept-art-of-panzer-88s-nazi+fighting-monster Premise, a "realistic" movie portraying the German retreat in Russia focusing on a five-man German tank crew encountering a supernatural entity as they motor across Russia. Check out the conception art! Takes one of my favorite childhood comics, "The Haunted Tank" to a whole new level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomm Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Check out the conception art! Seems that the monster will win. Best regards, Thomm 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stalins Organ Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Dunno what is "wow" about this - is it a Pz 4 or a Tiger or a Panther? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Dunno what is "wow" about this - is it a Pz 4 or a Tiger or a Panther? The balance of the visual evidence suggests that it is a Tiger, but it is confusingly drawn, isn't it? Could it be meant to be conceptually a composite or "universal" Panzer? Or was the artist just being weird? Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plinko Posted September 16, 2010 Author Share Posted September 16, 2010 It certainly does look like a Panther/Tiger1/2/Mark4 mash-up. link 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stalins Organ Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 The tank is supposed to be a King Tiger & in a commentry somewhere they say that they know that there is no evidence KT's ever had armour skirts as in my link....but hey...there's no evidence that they didn't either! But then it's a fantasy film in a vaguely historical context....(...not going to mention anyone by name....must....bite.... my...... tongue) not a documentary! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoolaman Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Pretty clearly a cartoony KT with skirts inc turret skirt. Weird but looks like they have got their tank groggery pretty right. LINK 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stalins Organ Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 I was looking at the running gear where the road wheels look a bit small for Tiger or Panther 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plinko Posted September 16, 2010 Author Share Posted September 16, 2010 I'm not sure which is the bigger fantasy...the "panzer monster" or a king tiger motoring its way across Russia. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
