For the final phase of building the tank, I added in various details to make the tank more lifelike and interesting. Firstly I created thin strips out of rectangles and aligned them with the wheels and wheel arches to create the tank treads. I also created headlights for the tank but creating a rectangular box, and then using a Boolean subtract to hollow it out. I then placed two cylinders inside for the lights themselves. The housing for the lights was then placed on the body of the tank, and using the polygon tool, extruded an area to connect the lights to the body of the tank. On the rear of the main hull, I placed two exhaust vents, which were made of thin rectangular primitives, partially placed inside the tank. Supply crates with rollbars were attached to the back of the tank, created using rectangular and cylinder primitives. Finally the tank was given aerials and radio masts using cylinder primitives.
