The same tank, now looking much cleaner, with the gunner William ‘Bill’ Ashton stood next to it.

It’d be cool to get more camouflage options like this on tanks especially as a lot of the groundwork was introduced with things like the Overlord pack.

+1 absolutely yes! We need the firefly variants, this one is very cool! I also noticed that the Firefly with the cast hull front, have a very specific layout for the addition track armor, it would be very cool to see it in game! And the firefly with add-on armor and spaced armor installed, we need all of them!

Normally I’m not a fan of the way extra track armour looks when it’s all piled up like that but I do think these look pretty good when they curve the links around the contours of the casting like this one.
