Hello everyone,
the following pictures show a model of the Chinese ZTZ-99, made entirely of spent shells and casings (in total over 48 thousand). The model weighs 6,5 tons. It’s currently on display in China’s Museum of Industry in Shenyang City, Liaoning Province.
That must have taken a LONG time to make…
I think the most fun part was making those shells empty ;)
Now that’s what i call art !
I am courious about one thing… were the shells have been protected against rust? :)
Brass does not rust :)
But it oxidizes :)
Um correct me if I’m wrong but…….oxidizing means rust.
Brass doesn’t rust it simply tarnishes which can be cleaned off with the right cleaning agent and some elbow grease. To an extent some people still consider tarnishing another form of rust but as its not doing damage to the metal as normal rust does many people on the other hand don’t consider it to be a form of rust.
Hello, i have one question. Is some one stats after patch 9.3 on nooob meter are f@ up ? Like my just look on “Most recent” -> http://www.noobmeter.com/player/eu/io36/501266903/
Look on Performance Rating and WN8 they are wrong.
Yes, its wrong all the way. Are you playing new light tanks also? It may be the case…
Have a look at the recent stats (by clicking on it) it shows that you’ve done 18 battles but it also says that you’ve done more than 100 battles each with KV-85 and T67… so yeah…
it look very funny my friend joke that im worse than a bot xD So its error on noobmeter. When they add those tanks kv-85 and rename t49 for t67 the stat just get error(only 2 battle to test kv85 and none on t67).
That situation is because new and renamed tanks got their stats moved and recalculated. Tomorrow it will show everything as usual. It happened already before, when tanks were moved or renamed.
But still is funny im worse than a bot xD
yeah, it makes me yellow again… :-D
Wow.. impressive.
Someone had waaay too much time on their hands….although I bet getting all those shells was fun!
I wonder what would happen if it got ammo racked?
WG’s new premium tank material :]]
Exploding into thousands of dangerous shells when destroyed :))
Awesome!
Made in China™
Avesome!
48 thousand shells and a near 7 tons… I have no words for this…. O_O
I thought it was made from more…… organic shells..
Or build by Shell…

IMO it’s ZTZ-96 :P
ZTZ-99 is longer
“That must have taken a LONG time to make…”
Depends on how many wars you get into.
