How to make a Plus-Plus tank. One of my most popular YouTube videos is this Plus-Plus tank build, so I decided to make a detailed tutorial, so you can make your own.
I really like multiple things about my tank build. First I think it looks pretty great, properly the best Plus-Plus tank build I have seen so far (not that there are so many). It also uses some pretty cool technics and therefor does need that many blocks. Last it can be opened easily and you can hide something inside.
Im looking forward to sharing this build with you. Hope you enjoy it. Lets get building
Difficulty: Medium
Time estimate: 5 minute build
What you need for this build:
- 19 green
- 15 black (16 if you follow the picture guide with a minor improvement)
YouTube tutorial
Here you can see me building the Plus-Plus tank. You can follow along if you wish or move to the section below where I go though the process step by step.
Note that the tutorial below include a minor change, that I added later for better stability of the cannon.
Step by step tutorial
Time needed: 5 minutes
- Building the tank cannon
Grab 4 black Plus-Plus and make this shape.
- Top and sides
Here you need to make 3 shapes out of 12 green and 7 black blocks. The two of the shapes are identical and the last one are going to be used to hold the cannon.
- Combine the top and sides
Combine the two shapes you just build. For now it might not look much like a tank, but It will very soon!
- Shaping the blocks into a tank
Bend the sides of your build like seen below. We did not add a single Plus-Plus here, but it already looks a lot more like a tank.
- Prepare for the cannon
Take 2 black Plus-Plus and add on top. This is to provide support for the cannon that we are about to add. Note that I did only place one black block here in the video. Both ways work, but I think I prefer this way.
- Add the cannon
Add the cannon you build in the very first step. The tank will be a bit unstable now, so lets fix that.
- Building the bottom of the tank
Make this flat shape seen on the image below. You need 7 green and 2 black blocks.
- Connecting the bottom of the tank to the rest of the build
Turn your tank build upside down and connect it with what you just build.
- Almost ready
Fold the bottom part down. They can be opened again in case you want to put something inside the tank. Just be a granate like one of my viewers suggested or the person controlling the tank.
- Tank build ready
Thats it! Now you know how to make your own Plus-Plus tank.
Alternative tank build
Since the tank build was pretty popular I decided to make another version of it. This one is more compact. Feel free to try it as well.
What you need for this build:
- 25 pastel green (or any green)
- 15 black
