Type 95 Ha-Go Light Tank
If anyone remembers my Live Journal Default Icon, this is the same Model, that I was working on when 9-11 happened back in 2001. Originally made in 3ds Max, it has been fixed up with new Texture maps, now that it doesn't' have to fit into a Playstation II, and processed into Second Live as a V.I.C.E capable Light tank for use on WW2 Sims, or if you want an odd vehicle to roam Second Life's road networks with. Priced at 800L it's probably one of the mroe inexpensive V.I.C.E. capable vehicles for sale, and youc an get this at Blacktail Ridge or your nearest THI Vendor. The Joys of Re-purposed Geometry.

If I made enough money, I'd want to drag out the wreck and restore it to running condition. Funny enough, one of the extras in the Second Life Version is an unscripted, rust brown, wreck for decorating one's private island. Where are you exactly?
Paints actually wer3e situational, based on pre- or Post 1942 Regulations and specific Units. The "Yellow Stripe" paints were pre mid 1942. an after that the paints simplified to only three colors, if that many. several schemes were solid greens or sand yellows, and sone early Navy units painted then IJN Battle Ship Gray, with he naval ensign on the side. The Tank Museum at Bovington in the U.K. has a particularly colorful Post 1942 example in their collection, and some where in Oregon is a restored and running solid Green one.

Eh, well... I don't think this one is ever going to run again, having been exposed to the ocean air for 60+ years. There's also a Type 97 around here somewhere and an old Sherman, as well as an old wrecked Corsair... I have the coordinates for all 3, just haven't managed the trek into the bush to find them yet. Here's a photo I took of the one near here: http://tinyurl.com/ctffljv Type 95 - Correct?
I'm heading back up to Saipan in the next month - there's quite a bit more armour just laying about up there. Last time I was there I swam out to a Sherman that was beached on the reef - quite the experience! Speaking of which, I have a Japanese naval insignia I found which I haven't been able to identify...

believe it or not the one you hav ein the photo there would be restoreable. very much so. That is indeed a Type 95 Ha-Go. Tansk are tough, as long as they haven't been exploded they are easier to restore than cars in terms of parts and pieces, Just everything is a lot heavier.
