Honestly, in the animation I plan to make it won’t just focus on the fight between the T-72 and M-1 Abrams, maybe I’ll make an alternate story between the US and Iraq.
The rebel forces used some tanks like the BMP-1 and 2, T-62 and IT-1 (even though the latter has had almost no success)
Since the IT-1 uses the T-62 chassis, I can remake the chassis and finally make a new turret for it, based on the T-55. It’s a good option.

M-1A2 Abrams almost ready.

All that’s left is to detail his side armor a little.
Make the 7.62 M-240 light machine gun.
Let’s go into a little more detail about the M-2HB.
Make the other side of the turret

That’s all for the rest.

Almost finished! Just need some finishing touches and adding the additional armor plates to the sides of the chassis. (Maybe a slight rework on the track.)

A small update, I will still modify the entire chassis. The turret is now a small priority.

Update.

I ended up reducing the chassis a lot, especially the part where the turret is located, I saw that it is not that tall.

I’m in the process of refining this first part of the animation. I’m testing shading and seeing how it looks, here’s a subtle difference.

I don’t know exactly where to start to finish, over time different ways of how I will start this story emerge. Since I’m going to start working in about 5 minutes, I’ll basically take some free time to build a storyboard.

The basics of history, It takes place in Iraq in 2005, in full governmental stability, after the American intervention and the establishment of a new government. Separatist forces supported by Russia and Iran, both indirectly and directly, are trying to oust the government And expel the Americans. Separatist forces attacked a large city near the Assyrian Desert, sending out a scouting force.

The animation will not focus on the story, but rather on the battle between the M-1 Abrams and the T-72.
