[Updated] PT-100M
Subject description: Still no PT-76 in sight...
Based on Soviet Object 685 amphibious light tank, with features taken from T-55AM and BMP-3M.
Those black-and-remap armor packages are mostly hollowed with light reactive armor element. They function as floatation aid, so yes, this tank can swim.
It also has a missile launcher instead of an AAMG.
This is the 2nd voxel I made from scratch. Personally, I think it is a bit too wide and not long enough.
Updated: I have released a new version below, please make sure to check it out.

Minor detailing that would be probably be washed out anyway.

Note the remap-black coloring of the side armor - I call it "clown car paint" for while it offers good contrast, it is also rather ridiculous.

Description:
The front flap appears detached while the tank is swimming - this is intended.
I forgot to tell you guys that is an issue with the shadow of the tank - sometimes, such as when the tank is airborne-dropped, the shadow is wrongly rendered a layer above the tank, not below it as normally.
This is the first time I have ever seen a voxel displaying such a rendering issue. Please excuse my inexperience, and I apologize for releasing a voxel with a problem without asking any assistance beforehand, but could anybody point out a solution to this? I would appreciate the help, and might update the voxel with the version I have shown in the picture (with Arena APS and less toy-like decals).

Notice that one of the tank is displayed with its shadow rendered above it.

After months of testing, I decided to update this voxel anyway. The shadow issue above is a rare occurrence anyway and sometimes may not even happen at all, if the rendering engine is having a good day.
Changes include a meaner, broader new turret more accurate to the Object 685, and better proportioned hull front. The missile launcher is still present, if smaller and leaner, along with an LMG. The reactive armor package is thicker and shaped after those on the up-armored BMP-3 of the Russian Naval Infantry. The most notable feature though is of course the Arena APS.

In-game, rather excessive amount of units though.

The jankiness of remap-black is really getting out of hand.

Description:
The clown car paint features a red skull and arrows as decals, in addition to silly 1 pixel stars that the game loves to misrender anyway. 100% ripped off from shin.peter.pan's much better voxels.

PT100M_005.jpg
Description:
At least it does look like a modernized Object 685 though.
the voxel is easily 2 or 3 times larger than the games unit parameters, and the details are
so minute and dense that when rendered ingame it looks like .jpeg compression artifacts and
they actually take away from the shape and design of the tank rather than add to it. QUICK_EDIT
It is unfortunate however that oversized land vehicles are my preference. Regarding the excessive detailing though, I had left enough redundant voxels beneath that stripping away, say, the missile tubes is always an option, just in case anyone is into some voxel editing.

It's the "Svetlyak" patrol boat I've uploaded here a few weeks ago. It was put in just for comparison. QUICK_EDIT
