Revell Germany had some 1/32nd-1/35th scale construction equipment that was a snap-kit.  I had a similar idea to add an excavator to the back of an MLRS to create a tracked excavator vehicle.

Hasegawa has a great line of 1/35 Japanese industrial vehicles

Like this one:



Which would work well with apophenia's original design, by changing the country of origin.

This might work as well:

By all reports it is quite a good design...probably comparable to a T-90...though it still has that type's main flaw in terms of ammunition layout.

Pursuant to your crane notion, I went a-lookin' and while there's plenty of (die-cast) models in 1:43rd and 1;50th (1/48th?), fewer still in 1:72nd.

Maybe the answer is a 3D print in 1:35th? I'll be damned if I can find any such files in the usual places, tho.

Here are the other four I got primed over the weekend. Not all of the parts that were primed are shown.

First one is a Tamiya M1A1 w/mine plough but I am using the mine plough on a different kit. This one will be US Army OIF in the NATO camo.


The second one is the Tamiya M1A1/A2 OIF kit that will be a US Army M1A2 TUSK I in overall sand from OIF. I got the TUSK parts from Tamiya customer service. The TUSK parts not shown.


The third one is the Hobby Boss PLA ZTL-11. I converted it to a what if by making a new front section of the turret and also moving the turret further back. I also added a thermal sleeve 105mm gun barrel from the ESCI IDF M60A1 Blazer kit. The gun barrel was generously donated by Jeffry Fontaine, thanks again for the parts. This one will be in desert digital camo scheme. I have a template I will use for the digital pattern.




The last one is a Hobby Boss PLA ZBL-09. This is also another what if. I added a Tiger Model T-40 Nexter turret. The turret ring on the hull was also moved a little further back.
