Never Defeated in Combat: The Bob Semple Tank! [How I Paint Things]

- The Bob Semple Tank. A legend known worldwide for its seemingly laughable quality, but was it really as bad as it seems at first glance? Put one of these down in a game of Bolt Action and watch your opponent panic trying to find a way to flank six Bren guns!
The STL for this resin print is available here: www.wargaming3... You can also find 1:100 scale STLs for the Bob Semple on Thingiverse fairly easily, though their detail might not scale up as easily.

BOLT ACTION RULES:
Bob Semple Tank (Armored Tractor 7+)
Weapons: 6 LMGs - One left, one right, one rear-facing, two front-facing, and one turret-mounted.
Special Rules:
Unreliable: Whenever a Bob Semple tank takes a pin from enemy fire, it automatically suffers a second pin in addition.
Slow: Only advances 6" and moves at 12" run rate.
Busy Fighting Compartment: The Bob Semple tank can fire a maximum of two hull-mounted LMGs when it fires. The turret is unaffected by this rule.

"Bob, can we make this thing move any faster?"
"Sure, just paint it red."
You could also import this absolute beast into your WH40K Ork army. Lotsa dakka, lotsa Orky know-wots. The only alteration you'd need would be to paint it red and have a grot head or two sticking out of hatches.
Fun fact the death corp of Krieg have a vehicle call the Siegfried which looks like a semple tank
The funny thing is in Bolt Action rules this thing would wreck with all the MGs on it.
This would be the Messiah of Pinning
The world's first meme machine 🤣 I absolutely love this tank!
That is an amazing mobile shed!
So a new addition too your konflict 47 army !
K47 would be a neat system to run a late-war invasion of New Zealand with Japan resurgent in the Pacific!
Because of the square corrugated shape it was nicknamed Semple's septic tank. Its an odd design for a Kiwi tank as it isn't held together with some number 8 wire.
Love it! It's hard to call it silly when it's the product of desperation, but it's definitely fascinating.
I think the Bob Semple tank would have made a great anti banzai bunker! Nippon was so behind in tank tech and production. For example all the really poo tanks left over from the desert conflict were still viable in the Far East theatre. The Lee and Grant could still do their bit! Hats off to Semple and thank goodness it was never needed to be tested.
...although it's an arty and AT barn door of a target. Dig in Digger! Hull down, Rod and Emu, hull down! ;D
In my head cannon, the corrugated sides are actually reinforced steel cooling fins to dissapate the heat from the beast of a power unit in it
Nobody ever got a good look at the reactor unit in there! 😂
Thank you , Troy .

As a Canadian, I can safely say any Newfoundlander would be stoked to host a Shed Party in that beast. Awesome job and awesome model!
Today I learned about shed parties. 😂
@@SonicSledgehammerStudio oh yeah! And look up mummering too, they have all kinds of crazy things going on on the east coast 🤣 my neighbors are from newfoundland and I've had the great privilege of experiencing both of these! 😄
You did it!!!!!!! This is why you’re my favorite
I think this was one of your best vehicle painting tutorials. In the end the vehicle had a nice muted look to the camouflage and this gave it a realistic appearance. Next should be a Kiwi Valentine tank. Thanks for sharing this tutorial and I learned some new techniques from this.
Yes - brilliant 👍
Tempted to add a boiler on the back and steampunk one...
It'd certainly be a lot more detail than was actually there! I had to double-check but it really was just huge flat panels, not even additional exhaust!
It might be absurd... but it's a neat little thing.
Intresting model and a nice paint job 👍.
You know, the more I think of it, the more I think this was brilliant! Better to do something than nothing. And as a mobile MG platform….Better than nothing and it would have had some “shock and awe” factor when the JIA first bumped into it. Especially as they were light infantry. It would have been an issue for them to deal with. So you know…by tank standards it’s a joke…but as an improvised Infantry Fighting Vehicle…I think it would have done okay! Cheers 🍻
It'll get there fustest with the mostest!
Yay, excellent : ) ! Thank you Sonic !
what a strange vehicle! great work as usual :P
Chad Bob Semple vs Virgin T-90
Very cool, And I loved the history vid earlier too!
So great to hear you having so much fun :D I am happy to support this madness! :D
Thank you, thank you! Now I have to absolutely go print one of these up and paint it because, well, "Why not?" 😆
I used to paint my army guys and the vehicles, I gave them a camo and medic symbols
Great job! The more I see this little tank the more I love it 😁
It’s taller than the panzerkampfwagen VIII Maus
If I was an infantry man facing that thing I would give it all due respect.
I think I've just found my new APC proxy for my wargames Atlantic grognards Imperial Guard army... I'm in love! Now I just need to find some 1:56 saint chamond tanks and I'll have the sexiest retro guard army going 😘
Yooo, I have that model, I do use it in 1937 a Very British Civil War
Things Bob Semple probably said when actually building his prototype: czcams.com/video/vdoUqrWIXK8/video.html
Great little history lesson, Never knew that
The greatest armoured vehicle...
In the world!
I've been laughing for 15 minutes straight. Thank you very much! :-D What's up next? Emu Cavalry?
That looks great awesome subject , can’t beat a bit of Kiwi ingenuity 😂😂👍🏻
8:32 Ah yes the patented I give up, I can't paint anymore, this isn't working, and it's not right method. I personally mastered this style of painting in my early days. Great video
Nothing helps solve a problem like biffing your tools across the room, I find! 😂
@@SonicSledgehammerStudio I understand all to well.
Ah and here it is! What kind of insignia do you think they would have applied in NZ? Any evidence of what they were doing? I always find on the WW2 models a couple of decals makes a world of difference to the relatively simple camo schemes.
It would likely have been attached to the Divisional Cavalry, since I doubt there'd have been enough of them to warrant calling them a tank brigade, and with just four universal carriers in NZ early on, they'd have made quite a difference in firepower! Anything along those lines would probably be fairly close, but I doubt they'd have bothered marking them if the superstructures were intended to be temporary conversions to the tractor units.
@@SonicSledgehammerStudio Australia had this tank czcams.com/video/2yjbhYUY0UI/video.html&ab_channel=HerbertErpaderp
This is fantastic
Cracking one Troy.
i love it
Who wouldn't like a video where you laugh?
You'd be surprised!
@@SonicSledgehammerStudio No one forces them to watch.
Hobbies are to be enjoyed and laughter is part of this.
You get a like and comment for the algorithm.
Can’t find this listed anywhere on warlord games. Think it’s a brilliant tank.
Have a peek in the description. He's a 3D print; the links to the STL are in there if you've got a home printer. Trying to find one of these in 1:56 scale was a nightmare!
Was Bob Semple known as Mekboy Bob to his friends?
Mekbob if you were in a hurry!
@@SonicSledgehammerStudio hurry? Looking at his tank, I taking a wild guess that speed really wasn’t bob’s main focus in life.
This is a great offbeat subject. Keep them coming!! Thanks and see you next time
