Is this length with the gun, or without?

Unsure, but I asume without.

Hm.

This page seems to indicate a different length with the gun.

Would I be able to enlist the help of one of our board's artists for a drawing of this?

Ya know, sometimes I would lose my head if it were not attached to my body. GromoBoy was kind enough to take on drawing the Triarii for me, I just left it in my inbox forever and didn't post it here. Thanks again Gromo!

Not a bad looking vehicle.

Much like your Avatar, it won't load the image for me.

Me neither.

And here I thought it was Canuckistani internet!

Interesting design.

Looks like a Tiger I hull, T34 running gear, and a lengthened Strv M/42 turret with a long-barreled gun. Maybe it's just me, though, but the turret looks too small for the hull. *Shrugs.*

Which makes it interesting; I have no difficulty seeing the image in question.

The M37.5/45 is going to have a larger turret to accommodate the 90mm gun.

What I find even more interesting is that I could see the picture yesterday, but now, I am no longer able to see it.

Nope, can't see it either.

It's the .ru host site, I think.

I am not able to view the picture either, now.

Yet I still can see it. By your comment Brock I presume it is a link rather than an imbedded image. I can also see the image where Sam has quoted the post and responded that he can't see it.

This seems to be a first.

I can see it at work, but not at home. Let me change the place where it is hosted, that should fix it.

EDIT: I moved the image to my photobucket, should be working now.

Now I can see it, and it's secret weapon...the 'shovel of death'. Now, if you fix your avatar we'd be all set.

Hey, not only does it have the 'shovel of death' but it's got that Indiana Jones style steel bullwhip to be pulled out when attacked by sword wielding Senussi tribesmen.
