Such steam punk powered rivet-tasticness - cool  8)
Envision it as a navy operated land crawler (great term) to do battle with ships offshore.
I'm classing it as a Coastal Defense Vehicle (CDV).  A vehicle type I would like to build.  This sets an example for CDVs.

Don't forget that the 1st tanks in WW1 were originally a Royal Navy project & were considered to be "land ships" until their cover designation took over.

Thanks for the comments chaps and the thread bump!

I would love to announce progress but alas I've been snowed under with work and other projects. I did complete the StuIG 33B that was lurking in the background and a M4A3E2 is nearing completion. However, what with the support from here I think that this going from the "shelf to shame" and back to the workbench  :)
