I've begun rigging the suit, a more complicated job than for my usual models because the different parts interfere with each other. Even the hatch has two motions to open.
The suit shell opens up for relatively easy entry and exit. Each of these actions are performed with a single parameter dial.

I modeled the interior to resemble many of the kit models, but made it roomier and tailored it to my approach.
The front part is very different, with displays and controls.

The original plastic kit kind of hedged on how the operator fit in the suit with lots of padding hiding his body. More recent kits and kit-bashes speculated on ways arms and legs fit into the suit, but it seems to me, one size fits all for a hard suit wouldn't work very well. I opted for a fairly uncomfortable seated position.

Just a few more odds and ends, then kitting to do. There will be an option to use Cybertenko's T-34 turrets.

Alternate turret is rigged and has one texture set.

Finishing up a complex accessory. The basic figure will be called Polyphemus, mostly from the scientific name for the Atlantic horseshoe crab, but also for the one-eyed look of the searchlight. There will be an alternate turret version inspired by a kit-bashed plastic model kit that incorporated a Gepard tank turret.

I still need to complete the accessories. Here are a couple of the MAT sets:

About fully rigged in Poser, but some accessory props still need building.
One texture set about half done.

Here are a couple of toon views of the final mesh, ready for Poser rigging. The second one is a rough material test with a camouflage texture.

The original kit was for a remote-controlled or autonomous hovercraft, but one of the kit-bashed versions accommodated crew with a driver station. There's also a side hatch into the tank.

More detail on the shell and the turret nearly complete.
The searchlight, antennae, and laser cannon will be adjustable and the hatches will open.

The plastic kit had lots of detail, exploited by kit-bashers that will be emulated in the figure.
