Sounds cool! Nice idea

[Belfry777]

The stats are nice I will try an picture.

[TrueSlav]

Made this thing in PAINt...
Consider it as a starting image and it's not centralized neither!
Is it way too small?

I'd make smaller versions so that infantry can be made to sit on them.

[Shark guy 35]

This would be an interesting unit.

[TrueSlav]

Another version. I didn't apply shading so don't consider it finished...
It's 64x64, is it alright?

I think you'd need another img where units are riding on it

[TrueSlav]

I think you'd need another img where units are riding on it

They would be barely visable but I will try.
I tried...

The canvas size is fine, but actually the image drawn inside is too large, it would look the size of a building ingame.

The image below is the size it should match
Also make it face the same angle, please.

[Puss_in_Boots]

Also the infantry onboard if you choose to draw them.

[TrueSlav]

A bit better?

Much better,add crewmates on the vehicle by copy-pasting the heads of the sprite puss gave.
And make the background transparent.

[Badnorth]

And make the flag team colored ( Different shades of pink/or just pink )

[TrueSlav]

By adding transparent you mean? (I think I did the background transparent, although it would be better if you double checked that)
Remember my capabillities
Also, remember my capabilities are limited to what Paint can offer- 800% zoom and a quite primitive colour pallet.
So this is what I came up with, if this will deem successful to you, I will add shading.

I did double check , the background of your sprite is white not transparent.
It should be like this

The canvas size is fine, but actually the image drawn inside is too large, it would look the size of a building ingame.

Also make it face the same angle, please.

The sprite is great.

[Badnorth]

Like this.

Because if it is not transparent the looks ingame would have color surrounding the tile.
This is not transparent

Ay, sorry, I hope I dont have to do it again as making your background transparent in a program like paint is new to me. So I will apply shading and sorry if this will anger you... but you will need to check my image again for signs of my incompetency. Sorry!
(the new image will be edited in this reply later
This is your image after being edited in PAINt =(

Download the transparent one from the reply and edit that one.
It should automatically be transparent that way.

[TrueSlav]

Some shadows were applied, Some stuff changed... but the background sadly remains intransparent. So I request you to make the final version with the transparent background and necessary changes (if there any) Thanks!

[Badnorth]

[Shark guy 35]

Shouldn't it be brown as all other Soviet units are?

[TrueSlav]

Well, then it looks like a chocolate bar on skis.

[Puss_in_Boots]

Changed to brown,
Reshaded,
Team coloring corrected.

[Puss_in_Boots]

Actually I don't know about the front and back so I re-reshaded.

Thank you for your work @TrueSlav and @QuadrupoleStrat

[Shark guy 35]

Looks good. Remember that we can always have a winter skin for it.

[Puss_in_Boots]

Yeah it just needs the propeller engine now.

[TrueSlav]

It should be easy but sadly I just can't do it because paint doesn't support transparent backgrounds.

Means I can only take my own versions which aren't shaded, draw the thing, send it here, someone would need to make the background transparent again, then shade it again. Rough.
